Netherlands winger Dilrosun in pop at Man City: They treat players like merchandise

The Dutch youngster has made his breakthrough with Hertha Berlin after accepting he would not make the first team at the Etihad Stadium

Netherlands winger Javairo Dilrosun has fired a dig at former club Manchester City for treating their players like "merchandise".

The 20-year-old has made 12 appearances for Bundesliga side Hertha Berlin's first team this season after joining them in May this year.

He didn't not get beyond City's Under-23 squad before moving to the Berlin club and, though he has warm words about manager Pep Guardiola's personal influence on him, he is less complimentary about the Blues' behind-the-scenes operations.
