Pep Guardiola Extends Manchester City Tenure With New Two-Year Contract

Share

Manchester City manager Pep Guradiola signed a new two-year contract extension today, extending his club tenure to over a decade.

“Manchester City means so much to me,” Guardiola said in a club statement.

The news comes as a huge boost to the Citizens, following rumors that the Spaniard would depart alongside Director of football Txiki Begiristain, whose decision to leave was announced in October, upon the expiry of his contract at the end of this season.

Begiristain worked with Guardiola at Barcelona and was key to his appointment at City, having joined the club in 2012.

Guardiola has won a remarkable 18 trophies, including a historic treble of the Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup in 2023, during his tenure, overseeing the club’s transition from wealthy challenger to part of soccer’s elite.
