Despite all of the success he had as a manager of Manchester City, Pep Guardiola reportedly won’t remain with the club for much longer. According to ESPN’s Rob Dawson, Guardiola is expected to leave City in 2025.

Guardiola’s current contract with the Premier League champions expires following the 2024-25, and sources close to the club told Dawson that the Spaniard doesn’t intend to sign an extension.

Guardiola is believed to be interested in taking a national team after he finishes his time with Manchester City. If that ends up being the case, he would have his choice of jobs, whether it’s Spain or other teams that he was linked with in the past, like Brazil and the United States.

Since arriving at Manchester City in 2016, Pep Guardiola has won an impressive 14 trophies. This includes a historic treble this season when he guided the City to Premier League, FA Cup, and UEFA Champions League trophies. His City side became the first English team since Manchester United in 1998–99 to achieve the feat.

 Guardiola previously managed Barcelona and Bayern Munich. He won three La Liga titles and two UCL trophies with Barca and conquered the Bundesliga in each of his three seasons in charge with Bayern.
