Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has come out to insist that he won’t be leaving the EPL alongside Jurgen Klopp. He recently hinted at staying at Manchester City beyond 2025, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he wants to stay at City for one more year and think about a possible extension when the time comes, but he understands Klopp wanting a break to reflect.

Pep added that he had the same feeling at Barcelona and the break did him a lot of good.
His words, “Do you want to sack me? (With a smile). I’m fine. There’s still one more year, I want to do it – and maybe I will extend.
I still try to manage. We can’t do more than last season but what is important is one step at a time. Players have the feeling now that we can’t lose games otherwise Liverpool will leave [us] We have to go to Anfield and be close. FA Cup and Champions League are around the corner. It’s one step at a time but I judge if my team are alive based on every single day, which you don’t have the pleasure to see. When we returned from Abu Dhabi with two days of training, I said the team was there. Don’t tell me why but they are there. They argue with each other, they want to be there. The focus they have, the way that we warm up. how they talk, how they communicate, how they celebrate now, how they celebrated Newcastle.
