Guardiola: I'm Closer To Leaving...

Guardiola: I'm Closer To Leaving...

After winning a fourth consecutive Premier League title on the weekend, Pep Guardiola made a big admission over his future at Manchester City.

The Citizens needed the final day of the league campaign to secure the 2023/24 EPL title as they beat West Ham United 3-1 at the Etihad Stadium. 

Premier League Player of the Season Phil Foden struck twice inside 20 minutes, before Mohammed Kudus pulled one back before the break. Spanish midfielder Rodri later scored to guarantee all three points and the league title for Guardiola's side.

With only one more year on his deal in England, the former Barcelona and Bayern Munich coach was far from coy when he addressed his long-term future. 

"The reality is I'm closer to leaving than staying," he said, as quoted by journalist Fabrizio Romano. 

"We have talked with the club and my feeling is that I want to stay now. I will stay next season.

"But during the season we will talk, we will see."

Guardiola has been in charge of City since 2016 and has claimed an impressive six league titles in his eight years.
