Pep Guardiola \'Closer To Leaving Than Staying\' After 24-25 Season 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon May 20, 2024 2:50 pm

Pep Guardiola revealed that next season could be his last as manager of Manchester City. Guardiola will be on an expiring contract after taking over the job in 2016.

“The reality is I am closer to leaving than staying [after next season],” Guardiola said. “We have talked with the club – my feeling is that I want to stay now. I will stay next season and during the season we will talk. But eight or nine years – we will see.

“What I want for my players is to enjoy two or three days [of this title success] and then we have two days to prepare for the final. But right now I don’t know what exactly the moti­vation is to do it [next season] because it’s difficult to find it when everything is done. But knowing the players and myself I know that when we are there we will say why should we not win today? Why should we not work as much as possible to do what we have to do? And I know we are going to do it [work].”
