Guardiola Wants To Stay At Man City Beyond 2021

By Daily Sports on November 30, 2019

Pep Guardiola is interested in staying as Manchester City manager beyond the length of his current contract with the Premier League champions, which is due to expire next summer.

The 48-year-old is already on course to make City the longest employer of his managerial career, having spent four years at Barcelona and three in charge of Bayern Munich.

But Guardiola has for the first time indicated that he would be prepared to discuss the prospect of staying beyond the summer of 2021 and into a sixth season in charge at the Etihad.

“I’m open (to staying) yes, I’m so comfortable working with this club,” said Guardiola.

“It depends on results. When you are five years it depends on the results. We will see what happens this season and next season.”

This season has not gone according to plan for the City manager as he attempted to match the unprecedented efforts of last year when he swept all three domestic titles with the club.

Injuries have played a big role in City, who travel to Newcastle this weekend, falling nine points behind league leaders Liverpool although the manager has long insisted that he will fulfil his current contract.

The fact his wife Cristina Serra has returned to live in Barcelona has cast doubts over Guardiola’s long-term plans in some quarters but the City manager insisted he feels like Manchester has become a second home.

“A little bit yeah,” he said. “But I also knew how tough this league is and I’m comfortable with the players, they’re incredible people and it is a joy to train with them.” (SuperSport)
