Manchester City is reportedly making plans for life after head coach Pep Guardiola, who is set to be out of contract in 2025. Guardiola has made a significant impact during his time at the Etihad, solidifying his place as one of the greatest managers in Premier League history by revolutionizing English football.
Under Guardiola’s leadership, Manchester City achieved a historic treble last season, securing their first-ever Champions League title. However, their recent exit from the Champions League quarter-finals at the hands of Real Madrid has caused some disappointment. Despite this setback, City is still on track to potentially win the Premier League and FA Cup this season.
Nevertheless, there are challenges ahead for Manchester City, as they are currently facing 115 charges for alleged breaches of Financial Fair Play regulations. Additionally, Guardiola has not committed to extending his contract beyond 2025, with reports suggesting that he may leave the club after next season.
Speculation about Guardiola’s potential departure has grown, with reports indicating that Manchester City is preparing for a future without the Spaniard. There is uncertainty surrounding Guardiola’s future, as well as the possible departure of sports director Txiki Begiristain.
As discussions continue about Guardiola’s successor, Girona manager Michel Sanchez has emerged as a candidate. Sanchez has impressed with Girona, a club affiliated with City Football Group, and his success in La Liga has positioned him as a strong candidate to replace Guardiola.
Michel Sanchez took over as Girona’s head coach in 2021, leading them to promotion to La Liga and achieving a notable tenth-place finish in the following season. Currently, Girona is competing for the La Liga title and is likely to secure a spot in next season’s Champions League.
As Manchester City prepares for a potential transition away from Guardiola, the club is exploring options to ensure continued success in the future.
