Looks like Pep Guardiola’s contract with Manchester City is up at the end of the season, and his future is still uncertain. There’s talk he might coach Brazil, but that wouldn’t be until after the 2026 World Cup. So he could stay at City for another year or even take a break. What do you guys think he’ll do?
I could see him taking a year off. He did that after Barca, and he’s been with City for a while now.

Yeah, wouldn’t be surprised if he wants a break. Coaching nonstop can be exhausting, even for Pep.

Taking a break might refresh him for something new like coaching Brazil too.
Him coaching Brazil would be something! Imagine the style they’d play under him.

Right? That could be amazing to watch! Would love to see him bring his tactics to the Brazilian squad.

Wonder how his style would mesh with Brazil’s traditional flair. Could be the perfect combo.
Why would he leave City though? He’s got everything there and just won the Champions League.

True, but maybe he feels like he’s achieved everything he can there. New challenges, you know?

Plus, sometimes coaches just need a change. City’s been his longest stint so far.
If Brazil isn’t until 2026, he might stay with City one more season and then take a break before that.

Makes sense. He could wrap up his time at City nicely and then recharge before a new adventure.
I’d be shocked if he went straight to Brazil. Feels like a sabbatical year would make more sense first.

Agreed! He’s done that before, and it could be the perfect way to gear up for a national team role.

Could also give him time to think about what he really wants next.
