Manchester City Coach Pep Guardiola Meets Oasis at Manchester Concert

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola was spotted celebrating backstage with the Gallagher family during Oasis’s highly anticipated return concert in Manchester. The event drew thousands of fans to Heaton Park, where Oasis performed their first stage reunion in 16 years, delighting audiences with hits like “Wonderwall,” “Morning Glory,” and “Some Might Say.”

Guardiola, who has been managing City since 2016, was among the guests at the gig. He posed for photos with Liam and Noel Gallagher’s children, sharing a cheerful moment backstage along with Liam’s youngest son, Gene. The family reunion included Lennon Gallagher, Noel’s daughter Anais, and Liam’s sons Donovan and Sonny, although Liam’s daughter Molly was absent.

The concert was part of Oasis’s scheduled tour, including multiple shows at Heaton Park, their only UK outdoor performances, before moving to stadiums like Wembley and Murrayfield. Fans queued hours before the gates opened, braving the hot weather with some camping out in the park, eager to secure the best spots.

Stage memorabilia included a cardboard cutout of Guardiola, paying homage to his success with Manchester City, which has secured the Champions League and numerous Premier League titles. During the concert, Liam Gallagher joked with fans, encouraging them to perform the Poznan dance, especially Manchester United supporters, implying their recent struggles.

Guardiola also donned a vintage Manchester City shirt and was seen smiling alongside musician Richard Ashcroft, sporting denim and an Oasis pass around his neck. The atmosphere was lively and celebratory, emphasizing the unity and spirit surrounding both the band’s reunion and local pride in Manchester.
