He spoke Spanish Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola with his players who were shocked by the news of his departure from the Etihad Stadium. After the match of the final round of the English Premier League, next Sunday.
According to British newspaper The Sun, the 55-year-old Spanish coach is furious after the news of his departure was announced ahead of the crucial and highly-anticipated clash against Bournemouth.
“Pep is very angry about the timing of the leak, which happened just before the game. He invited the players to join a conference call late in the evening to confirm his departure and he apologized for breaking the news, which personally surprised him, knowing that the players were informed last Saturday that he would not be leaving, so everyone is now in a state of shock.”
The report claims that the legendary manager, who led Manchester City to 17 major titles, has kept his future under wraps in recent days and has repeatedly stressed that he still has another year left on his contract.
Guardiola took over from Bayern Munich in 2016 and has won six Premier League titles with City and led the side to their first Champions League trophy in 2023, in addition to securing a domestic double this season.
The paper said in a previous report on Monday that Pep had spoken to chairman Khaldoun Al-Mubarak after last Saturday’s FA Cup victory over Chelsea as the administration’s hopes of persuading him to complete the final year of his contract had faded.
