The 1-3 defeat against Bodø/Glimt has put Man City in the position of Pep Guardiola under big questions. |
Immediately after suffering a humiliating defeat in the derby against Manchester United, Manchester City continued their losing streak against Bodø/Glimt, a tiny team from Norway. These were two terrible defeats, despite the club spending over £500 million in the past year.
The pressure on Pep is immense right now. Even if the Man City board is unlikely to sack Guardiola at this point, the possibility of him leaving the club in the summer remains very high. Despite still having a contract with Man City until 2027, Marca predicts the Spanish strategist could leave Etihad.
It's no coincidence that the British press has reported that in recent times, coach Enzo Maresca has repeatedly discussed with representatives of Man City the possibility of returning to the Etihad Stadium as head coach if Guardiola leaves the team.
The Italian coach previously worked at Man City, managing the U21 team in the 2020/21 season, before becoming a close assistant to Guardiola. On beIN SPORTS , veteran commentator Richard Keys even revealed that Guardiola is considering leaving Man City.
“If that happens (Guardiola leaving Man City), remember that you heard this information first here,” Keys asserted. “Don’t rule out the possibility of him leaving as early as next week. And if Pep leaves now, Enzo Maresca will be in charge.”
Keys also revealed that Man City have another option to replace Pep in the long term: Vincent Kompany. The former Man City captain is impressing while managing Bayern Munich and is ready to return to Etihad as head coach.
