Pep Guardiola trying ‘to discover life’ after Man City departure as coach admits he doesn’t ‘feel’ desire to return to football

While he acknowledges his current happiness in his new life, Guardiola has not entirely ruled out a future return to football. “I started managing at 37, and today I’m 56. I need to do new things. Right now, I feel very happy.”

Regarding a potential return to City, Guardiola added: “One day, of course, I will return to the Etihad Stadium. But right now, I want to stay behind the scenes. If they ever need me, I’ll be there,” he explained.

To conclude, he also paid a special tribute to Jurgen Klopp, stating: “He was the greatest rival of my career. He was capable of changing his tactical system every twenty minutes. He used to drive me crazy.”
