According to reporter David Onstein, Guardiola will be with Manchester City next season as well.
British media ‘Sports Bible’ reported on the 23rd (Korea time) that “David Onstein threw a big bomb about his future amid the uncertainty surrounding Pep Guardiola.”
Guardiola’s Manchester City contract is scheduled to expire at the end of the season and has been closely related to the England manager’s job even before Thomas Tuchel took office. It has already been confirmed that Chiki Behirstein, a longtime friend of Guardiola’s and Manchester City’s sports director, will step down as director and hand over the work to Sporting CP’s Hugo Viana.
Rumors are rising that Sporting’s Hoobeng Amorim, who has been mentioned as Guardiola’s successor, could join Manchester City after Viana’s appointment. However, according to David Onstein of The Athletic, Guardiola is expected to stay with Manchester City.
Despite the outcome of Manchester City’s 115-count hearing, there are talks that Guardiola will sign a one-year contract. Talking about Manchester City’s summer contact with Guardiola on NBC Sports, Onstein said, “Pep Guardiola was not in a position to renew his contract at the time, so the English Football Association would have had to adjust its plans accordingly.”
He continued, “After checking a few things when Guardiola came out about a week ago, it became clear that Pep Guardiola was more likely to extend his tenure at Manchester City than anything else, including as England manager.” 먹튀검증
Onstein also said, “He always tends to make decisions late. I got the news that he would sign his last contract in November 2022, when his last six months were approaching. You have to remember that sports director Cheeky Behirstein is leaving.”
Onstein finally explained, “Pep Guardiola said ‘part of me is leaving’, but this was interpreted as ‘part of me is staying’. Maybe we didn’t see the end of Pep Guardiola at Manchester City.”
As Onstein said, if the one-year contract is extended, Guardiola, who has now won six Premier League titles, will take the helm of Manchester City for 10 years.
