		</div><p>Pep Guardiola will let his players decide who should be Manchester City’s next captain.</p>
<p>The Premier League champions need a new on-field leader following the retirement of the long-serving Vincent Kompany at the end of last season.</p>
<p>David Silva took the armband for Wednesday’s pre-season game against West Ham in China but a decision on a permanent skipper will not be made until all the squad return from their summer breaks.</p>
<p>City manager Guardiola said:<em> “They will choose the captain when we are all together. After they are all back (they are) going to make a meeting and decide who is going to be captain.”</em></p>
<p>Playmaker Kevin De Bruyne says he would happily take on the role if he was offered it.</p>
<p>The 28-year-old said: <em>“About the captaincy, I don’t know. If the team wants me to be captain, or the club does, I would gladly accept it but I think that’s something everybody needs to talk about as a team, as a club.</em></p>
<p><em>“This will be talked about when everyone comes back. There are a lot of players missing from the Copa America and Riyad (Mahrez) is still at the African Cup of Nations.</em></p>
<p><em>“We will need to do that together because it is a really important job, not only on the pitch but off the pitch.”</em></p>
