Guardiola wants to continue at City despite possible sanctions

London, May 24. Pep Guardiola, Manchester City coach, stated that he will continue at the English club, whatever the resolution on the hundred financial irregularities that weigh on City.

“I will stay. Next season I will be here even though there are 115 accusations against us. I would like to continue here next year,” said Guardiola, who has a contract until 2025 and who also asked that the accusations about the club.

“What I would like is for the Premier League or the judges to make a decision as quickly as possible. Maybe we did something wrong and everyone will know it, or maybe what happens is that we are who we think we are and what we have done in the last few years it’s been the right thing to do, then people will stop thinking about us like that. I’d love to see it happen tomorrow.”

Guardiola also commented that it is easier to continue in England, where he has been for six years now, because the atmosphere around the coaches is more relaxed than in other countries such as Spain or Italy.

“What they demand of you here is very high, but the environment outside the field is more comfortable. Ask Carlo (Ancelotti) or Julen Lopetegui, those who come from Spain or De Zerbi, who comes from Italy. I’m not saying it’s better or worse, but there the noise is… Here if you win a game you’re a good coach and if you lose you’re a bad coach, but then you go home and prepare the next one. It’s more comfortable. We live better”. EFE
