Pep Guardiola signed his two-year extension with Manchester City on Thursday, which will keep him with the club until 2027. Guardiola\'s contract was set to expire at the end of the current season.
\"Since the beginning of the season, I\'ve been thinking a lot,\" Guardiola said. \"I want to be honest, I thought this [season] should be the last one. But the problems we had in the last month, I felt now was not the right time to leave. I didn\'t want to let the club down.
\"Manchester City means so much to me,\" Guardiola said. \"We have experienced so many amazing times together. I have a really special feeling for this football club. That is why I am so happy to be staying for another two more seasons.\"
The extension will allow Guardiola to remain with City for at least 10 years. Guardiola is the most successful manager in City\'s history, having won 15 major trophies including six Premier League titles and the Champions League.
