Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has confirmed this morning that he will be leaving Ethihad to join this shocking European giant

This week, news reports in Germany said that Bayern Munich might look to their old boss Pep Guardiola as a possible replacement for Thomas Tuchel.

Bayern’s interest in Xabi Alonso was turned down after it was decided to fire Tuchel at the end of the season. And the fact that Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag is linked to Bayern seems less likely with each loss he leads at Old Trafford. Because of this, a report in Kicker on Monday said that Bayern is interested in hiring Guardiola again this summer. However, the report also said that the manager has no plans to leave Manchester City at this time.

Guardiola is under contract with City until the summer of 2025. That would make his time there nine years. He has said in the past that he plans to keep the contracts he signs and not leave a club before the end of the deal, unless bad results mean he has to.

Last year, at his first press meeting after the charges were made public, Guardiola said, “I am not moving from this place.” He has made it clear that City must be given the chance to clear their name in a separate setting.

At the time, he said he would stay in charge even if the result was demotion to League Two. Early this season, he said that he would be more likely to stay at City if they were kicked out of the Premier League than if they won the Champions League again.

“You are asking questions like we just got in trouble.” “And right now we are not guilty until proven guilty,” he said. “I know people want it.” Wait and see. We’ll come back here and explain it after the sentence is over. But I will not think about my future at all if it means being here or in League One. Of course.

“If we stay in League One, we have a better chance than if we win the Champions League.” The story has changed, so why shouldn’t I believe it?

“No, that’s not true. The judge, the court, the Premier League lawyers, and our lawyers will all make their case in front of the judge and after he makes a decision.” I didn’t change my mind about it at all—take your time, wait to see what they decide, and then we’ll accept the outcome.”

Guardiola also talked about his plans for the future after taking City to the triple last season. He insisted that his plans for the future hadn’t changed since he finally won the Champions League with Chelsea.

He said, “I signed a deal for another two years because I feel relaxed, and it doesn’t matter if we win (the treble) or not.” He even hinted at a possible extension past next summer.

“I am happy, and so are the people around me, especially the board and the leadership, because they get to choose which manager will lead this group of players in the end.”

“Anyway they are happy, I’m happy too.” We won, and I want to protect it. If I get tired at the end of the season, we can talk with the club about extending the deal.

In the game between Manchester City and Nottingham Forest, Josko Gvardiol scores for City.
As the season has gone on, Guardiola has given more hints about his decision to stay. As his deal enters its last year, more people will question his decision, especially as the Premier League decision gets closer. There will be a ruling “soon,” according to Richard Masters, CEO of the Premier League. This could affect Guardiola’s contract talks as well.

After winning the triple, Guardiola took the three prizes to Abu Dhabi to meet City owner Sheikh Mansour. In January, the Blues went back to Abu Dhabi for a training camp in the warm weather. Chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak, CEO Ferran Soriano, and Sporting Director Txiki Begiristain are all people he talks to on a daily basis.

Guardiola recently told ESPN Brazil that he wants to handle an international team at a big event. It’s not clear if Guardiola would be open to going back to Bayern after leaving City.

“I’d like to coach a national team for the World Cup or the European Championship.” “That sounds good to me,” he said. “I don’t think anyone would want me!” Like a club, the national team has to want you to work for them. I never thought about getting the World Cup. Before I started, I never thought about having a team win the league or the Champions League. Not at all. I thought, “Do I have a job?” Okay.

“I’d like to live through a World Cup, a Euro, a Copa América, or something else.” That sounds good to me.
