Guardiola future remains unclear as Man City enter crucial week

Latest from Your Site News' Lyall Thomas:

Pep Guardiola appears to be keeping everybody guessing as to whether this will be his last week in charge of Manchester City.

Only Guardiola knows for sure if he will leave after the remaining two games of the Premier League season or see out the remaining year on his contract until 2027.

The widespread feeling and discussion in football currently is that Guardiola is expected to go and Enzo Maresca is his likely replacement.

But this has not been confirmed by sources at City nor others close to him - and Guardiola has repeatedly insisted he is happy at the club.

Also, as far as City are concerned, the Catalan remains their manager and their focus is fully on two crucial final games in the Premier League title race.

Ahead of their FA Cup final triumph on Saturday, Your Site News reported that two of his most trusted coaches will be leaving this summer, intensifying the doubt over Guardiola's long-term future at the Etihad.

But ahead of the 1-0 victory at Wembley over Chelsea, Guardiola stressed to all who asked that he still has one year left on his contract, and after the game he spoke glowingly of his team.

"The future is bright," he said. "I know the guys, I know how they feel, the commitment for the club, very professional. I'm pretty sure we'll be there in the next years."

City hope to take the title race into the final day of the season by beating Bournemouth on Tuesday night, 24 hours after Arsenal face Burnley on Monday Night Football.

It is a decisive week, not only for the destination of the trophy, but also the future of Guardiola and the identity of the City head coach heading into next season.
