Manchester City officials are starting to consider potential candidates to replace Pep Guardiola as his contract comes to an end. Guardiola’s current deal expires in 2022, and discussions are intensifying about whether he will sign an extension to reach a decade in charge of the club. However, City is prepared for any outcome and is actively assessing the managerial market to react quickly when Guardiola decides to leave.
One name that has emerged as a potential successor to Guardiola is Míchel Sanchez, the current manager of Girona. Míchel’s style, charisma, football knowledge, and work ethic have earned him respect within the City Football Group. He is reported to be learning English in preparation for a potential move to Manchester City in the future. City is also considering other options, knowing they offer an appealing project to many coaches globally.
Míchel’s managerial career includes successful spells with Rayo Vallecano’s youth set-up and Girona, where he has demonstrated his potential. City has already signed players from Girona, indicating a close relationship between the clubs. The City Football Group is looking for a smooth transition post-Guardiola and sees Míchel as a candidate who fits the profile they are seeking as they plan for the club’s future.
