Pep Guardiola makes decision on Man City future ahead of Premier League final day

Pep Guardiola has made a decision on his Manchester City future ahead of the final day of the 23/24 Premier League season.

Heading into the final match weekend of the campaign, Guardiola’s men are in pole position to clinch a fourth title in a row.

They hold a two-point lead over Arsenal at the top of the Premier League and City know the title will be their’s if they win against West Ham United at the Etihad Stadium.

Speaking ahead of the match, Guardiola spoke about his future.

There have been rumours that Guardiola is thinking about his future with his contract set to expire in the summer of 2025.

However, the Spaniard confirmed his intention to stay for next season.

He said: “I have a contract, I want to be here next season, yes.

“I don't know next season. We have to see how we finish, sometimes the decision depends on how we finish the season.”

Guardiola added: “The player who has a good season, is already done. Nothing changes how the season is in the last two games. We have to wait. Now I'm not thinking for one second about next season.”

When asked about whether City’s dominance in the Premier League is having a negative impact on the Premier League, the City boss said: “If the narrative was that I was winning by 20 points I would say 'yes, I'm a genius, I'm so good.

“But it's not. The Premier Leagues we have won the others could have won - and Arsenal can win this one.”

He continued: “The winners smell good, and everyone wants to copy that. There is a lot of work behind it - a lot. Nothing you have done in the past gives you the right (to win). It's completely the opposite.

“It's a lot of work for all departments the backroom staff, the medical department, the office department, how they care about those few, few inches.”
