The Spanish coach agreed extension for another two years of the agreement with the English group. To achieve the ultimate goal of winning the UEFA Champions League trophy, the Etihad Sheiks are willing to make any financial effort and have announced that they will prepare a new offensive for the signing of Leo Messi in January. The Argentine is in the last year of his contract with Barcelona and will be able to sign for any team in winter.
However, Guardiola made a surprising statement about the future of Leo Messi: “He is the Barcelona player. I’ve said it a thousand times. As a fan, I want Leo to finish his career there. His contract expires at the end of the season and I don’t know what’s going through his mind. I have great appreciation for Barcelona and I am grateful for everything they have done for me.Pep Guardiola was quoted by bbc.com.
- Pep Guardiola shattered the dreams of Manchester City fans to see Leo Messi with the “citizens” shirt. They were convinced that with the extension of the Iberian coach’s contract, the arrival of the Barça star at Etihad will only be a matter of time.
Pep Guardiola and Leo Messi collaborated between 2008 and 2012
Guardiola’s new agreement with Manchester City will end in 2023. Thus, the Iberian coach will spend seven seasons at the helm of the “citizens”, as he met in Barcelona and Bayern Munich together. The result of the collaboration between Pep and Leo Messi, between 2008 and 2012, were the 14 trophies, of which two Champions League, three Leagues and two European Super Cups.
The latest challenge at the Etihad for Pep Guardiola remains to win the UEFA Champions League trophy, but in the last three editions, City did not make it past the quarter-finals. The Spaniard has six titles in his history with Manchester City, including the Champions League trophies in 2018 and 2019.
“Since I arrived at Manchester City, I have felt welcomed by the club and the city. Since then we have achieved many performances, we have obtained victories and trophies, we are proud of our successes.
I have had the support that any coach wants, I have everything I want to do my job and I am delighted with the confidence shown to continue two more years after this season.“was Guardiola’s announcement on the official website.
