Report: Club eye Man City favourite nearing ‘end of cycle’ to replace their own ‘strange’ man

Pep Guardiola was appointed Manchester City manager in 2016 and has presided over 302 games in the last five years, boasting a 74% win ratio and having won four League Cups, three Premier League titles and one FA Cup.

Guardiola has two years remaining on his deal at the Etihad Stadium but El Nacional say he’s nearing the ‘end of cycle’ and might soon be on his way out. One club interested in poaching him are Barcelona.

The 50-year-old, a former player and manager of the Catalans, won the treble in 2008/09 while changing the landscape of football by popularising tiki-taka.
