Guardiola warned that he will not be tied to the contract with City and in Spain they assure that Luis Enrique will replace him

Pep Guardiola has a contract with Manchester City until 2025, but according to information from Chiringuito journalist Javier de la Peña, the DT could leave earlier than expected: “Guardiola could leave City, despite renewing last year All ‘inside the club have started considering options.’

Among the possible successors appears the name of another Spaniard, Luis Enrique, currently without a club after the Spanish national team decided to fire him after being eliminated from the 2022 World Cup, last December, in the hands of Morocco.

Similarly, de la Peña assured: “If it were to happen (because of the exit), City’s plan B is Luis Enrique, a coach that Txiki Begiristain (sporting director) likes a lot and who would follow Guardiola’s line and he would play a bit.City have already spoken to him, there has already been a first contact and there has also been talk of the money he could earn per season. The money for three seasons is 16 million euros”.

Indeed, there are several reasons why Guardiola could step away from the English establishment in the near future: his contribution to the team, his idea of ​​leaving football and, more recently, The 100 financial crimes the Premier League accuses Manchester of.

It should be noted that, some time ago, Pep was frank when talking about his future in the English team: “EThe moment I feel something is wrong, I will resign or not renew my contract. I’m not going to stay like (Alex) Ferguson or (Arsene) Wenger. The contract is just a piece of paper. I have extended my commitment to the club as I feel the team can still do well under my leadership. In the end, it’s all about the result. If we get tired of each other, I won’t stay until the end because of the contract“.
