England FLOP manager Garath Southgate is set to become Manchester city manager if Pep Guardiola leaves this summer according to top reporters
Former England player Jermaine Jenas thinks that FA officials have reason to be optimistic about their chances of pursuing Pep Guardiola as their new manager.
After four big tournament seasons, including back-to-back losses in the European Championship final, Gareth Southgate quit as manager of the Three Lions. Now, the FA has to make a big choice about who will lead the very skilled team.
A story says that the FA is interested in Guardiola as a manager for City. They are even ready to wait until the end of his deal in 2025. The Catalan has said in the past that he wants to lead an international team one day, but it probably won’t be Spain, even though he has 47 caps and led his country to Olympic gold in 1992.
Jenas, who is 41 years old, thinks that England is one of only four places in the world that might be able to get Guardiola. “Because he’s Catalan, Pep is my first choice.” “I wouldn’t have thought he was going to be Spain’s manager,” Jenas told Mirror Football before the Formula E Grand Prix last weekend.
“One day, Pep will be a manager on a global level.” And it doesn’t matter if it’s Brazil, Portugal, England, or Germany. He’s going to do it eventually.
Jenas thinks that England needs a boss who likes to be in charge. Frequent names have been Eddie Howe of Newcastle and Graham Potter, a free agent.
