Pep Guardiola does not rule out renewing his contract with Manchester City. Even more so, he recognized that "if he were up to me he could renew 10 more years." The Spanish manager gave an interview to Sky Sports and talked about what the future might hold for him.
Pep Guardiola tells Sky Sports: "If I extend my contract, it will be at the end of next season. Before it's not gonna happen. I'm here since many years and I need to see how we feel together, me and the team". %uD83D%uDEA8%uD83D%uDD35 #MCFC

"If I sign a new contract with Manchester City, I will decide at the end of next season. Not before", stated the former Bayern Munich and Barcelona manager.
