Guardiola Officially Confirms Manchester City Exit
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has announced that he will leave the club at the end of his spell at the Etihad Stadium.
The Spanish coach made the announcement in a statement released on Friday, which brought an end to speculation surrounding his future at the Premier League side.
“And what a time we have had together,” Guardiola said.
“Don’t ask me the reasons I’m leaving.
“There is no reason, but deep inside, I know it’s my time.”
Guardiola will depart Manchester City after spending 10 years with the club, despite still having one year remaining on his current contract.
The 55-year-old ended his final season with a domestic cup double. However, City failed to retain the Premier League title after they played a 1-1 draw against Bournemouth.
Since arriving at Manchester City, Guardiola has enjoyed one of the most successful managerial spells in English football. He won 20 trophies during his time at the club, including six Premier League titles and one UEFA Champions League crown.
