Guardiola's admiration for Ferguson is no surprise, given the Scot's remarkable 27-year tenure at Manchester United. Under Ferguson's leadership, United dominated English football, claiming two Champions League titles, 13 Premier League crowns, and numerous domestic cups.

Ferguson's legacy extends beyond his on-field success. He played a pivotal role in shaping Manchester United into the global powerhouse it is today.
