Pep Guardiola offered new job during live interview at Wimbledon

Pep Guardiola offered new job during live interview at Wimbledon

Pep Guardiola was spotted at Wimbledon

Pep Guardiola was in the stands to take in the action at Wimbledon and received an unexpected offer.

The Manchester City manager is currently enjoying some downtime after leading his side to a record fourth-successive Premier League title last season.

He will have one eye on this summer’s European Championship with plenty of Man City stars still in action as the tournament edges to a conclusion.

Guardiola was spotted taking in another sport at the weekend after being pictured in the Royal Box on centre court at Wimbledon. The City boss was playfully booed by supporters as his name was announced, according to BBC Sport, ahead of the clash between Brit Cameron Norrie and Alexander Zverev.

Zverev emerged victorious after a mammoth third-set tie-break, winning 6-4, 6-4, 7-6 (15) to book his place in the fourth round.

During his post-match interview, Zverev directed a message straight to Guardiola, offering him two different alternatives to managing City.

“It's an incredible honour to play on centre court, in front of this Royal Box, we had some many great guests today,” he said. “For me, a football legend with Pep Guardiola.

"When I saw Pep, I got so nervous for a few games there, thanks a lot for coming, it's a great privilege and an hour to play.

"And by the way, Bayern Munich needs a coach man.

"And if you're tired of football, you can coach me on the tennis court anytime."


While it’s unlikely to see Guardiola switch to tennis coaching, the Catalan has hinted it might be his final season at Manchester City.

At the end of the season, he said: “The reality is I'm closer to leaving than to staying.

“It's eight years, will be nine.

“Right now my feeling is I want to stay next season. We talked with the club, we have time to talk next season because I have to see the players as well, (to see) if they follow me, they follow us, for many reasons. I will stay and during the season we will talk when calm.”
