What Guardiola said
The former Barcelona man has now doused the unrest in City fans who fear his exit at the end of the 2024/25 season, as he stated his desire to continue beyond this campaign.
“I am not ruling out absolutely that I sign a new contract,” Guardiola said, per Sam Lee. “I want to be sure it’s the right decision, not just for me but for the players if they run no matter the competition; that is what I have to see.
“But I am pretty sure eight more years I will not be here! When I decide it’s over first of all I speak to my sporting director and CEO, I wouldn’t do one step without my team knowing it.
“I wouldn’t want to cause a problem in the way I do it. Start the season, see how everything is going, how connected we are all together again and after we will see.”
