Pep Guardiola has claimed it could be two years before he takes over a club in the Premier League.
Guardiola announced earlier this year he would leave Bayern Munich when his contract expires at the end of the season because he wanted to manage in England’s top flight, fuelling speculation about a possible move to Manchester City or rivals Manchester United.
In a further twist to the guessing game over the Catalonian’s next job, Guardiola has now admitted his move to England may not happen for two years – or that it might not happen at all.
“When I sign a contract I will announce it immediately,” said the former Barcelona boss.
“Maybe it will be two years until I will coach a team in England.
“I am very happy about my experience in Munich. I am working until my last second here.”
