Pep Guardiola hints about prospective Manchester City contract extension.
Following the recent announcement of Jurgen Klopp’s impending exit from Liverpool, Pep Guardiola intimated that he may extend his contract with Manchester City.
It was reported on Friday that the German will depart Liverpool at the conclusion of the season, citing a lack of enthusiasm to execute the job.
Guardiola was asked about his own energy levels after his side beat Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 in the FA Cup last night, and if that will affect how long he continues as City manager.

Speaking to the media after last night’s encounter in north London, the Spaniard, whose current deal with City expires in 2025, said the following.
He said, “I am OK. I’d like to continue doing it for another year, or longer.”

The 53-year-old signed a contract extension in November 2022, and if he stays, he will have spent nine years at the Etihad Stadium, the same amount of time Klopp will have been in charge of Liverpool.
During his time at City, the Spaniard has won 14 major titles and is hoping to make history this season by becoming the first team to win four Premier League trophies in succession.
In terms of potentially signing another agreement in the future, we believe the club should work behind the scenes to obtain Guardiola’s signature and retain him at City for as long as possible.
However, with the Citizens aiming to reclaim the three trophies they won last season, this will definitely be Guardiola’s primary worry before any discussions about his future can begin.
