Pep Guardiola has said Manchester City’s recent struggles contributed to his decision to sign a new two-year contract which will extend his stay as manager to more than a decade.
The 53-year-old would have been out of contract on July 1 next year, but has now agreed a new two-year deal to remain at the Etihad until 2027 – 11 years after he arrived in Manchester.
Although Guardiola’s time at the Etihad Stadium has been littered with trophies, 18 in all, his new contract comes at a time when City have lost four straight games – two in the Premier League, one in the Champions League and one in the Carabao Cup.
