'I am closer to leaving than staying' - Pep Guardiola gives honest update on his Man City future after landing sixth Premier League title

The Catalan hoisted his sixth Premier League title in eight years as City manager and admitted that he may not continue beyond next season, when his latest contract expires.

"The reality is I am closer to leaving than staying," Guardiola told Sky Sports. "We have talked with the club - my feeling is that I want to stay now. I will stay next season and during the season we will talk. But eight or nine years - we will see."

Guardiola has been at City for double the amount of time he was at Barcelona and five years longer than his tenure with Bayern Munich. His current contract runs until 2025 and he pledged to honour it although he did say he would talk with City's executives next season about his future.

Sky Sports pundit Jamie Redknapp joked that Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta would love for Guardiola to quit City after he pipped him to the title for the second year in a row. He said: "Arteta's in his office going 'please leave!"'

Guardiola's side can make yet more history when they face Manchester United in the FA Cup final next Saturday, when they have the opportunity to become the first team in English football to win the league title and FA Cup in successive seasons.
