There were quite a lot of rumors in recent months surrounding Manchester City’s manager Pep Guardiola and his future with the Premier League side. Guardiola still hasn’t signed an extension, which led many to speculate he’ll end his tenure at Etihad Stadium when his contract expires at the end of the season.
However, it appears that the Spaniard isn’t so keen on leaving City as some believe.
During a recent chat with reporters, Guardiola talked about his future when asked to comment on speculations that he could return to Barcelona when the club elects a new president.
“I am incredibly happy here,” said Guardiola, dismissing the rumors.
Guardiola explained that he enjoys his work with Man City and expressed hope to continue his stint with the club in the future.
“I’m delighted to be in Manchester, and I hope I can do a good job this season to stay longer,” he added.
Pep Guardiola arrived at Manchester City in 2016 and helped the club to further assert their status as one of the best clubs in the world. City won two consecutive Premier League titles under Guardiola, in 2017/18 and 2018/19, while also winning six other trophies.
The only major silverware that Guardiola lacks with City is UEFA Champions League, and if he sticks around, there is no doubt that he’ll be in the position to get it.
