Pep Guardiola weighs exit as City face Bournemouth on Tuesday — Thesun

thesun reports Pep Guardiola’s future at Manchester City is still unresolved as the season closes with two Premier League games left. The club beat Chelsea 1-0 at Wembley on Saturday to win the FA Cup, but the 55-year-old still kept people guessing over whether this is his final week in charge.

Guardiola and City

Before the FA Cup final, Guardiola said he still had one year left on his contract, which runs until 2027. After the win, he added: "I know the guys, I know how they feel, the commitment to the club, very professional. I'm pretty sure we'll be there in the next years."

That line sits alongside a different feeling around the game: Guardiola is widely expected to leave, even though club sources have not set that out. He has repeatedly said he is happy at Manchester City, but two of his most trusted coaches are also leaving this summer, and Bernardo Silva is set to go as well.

Maresca and the bench

Enzo Maresca is widely viewed as Guardiola’s likely replacement, which turns the final two league matches into more than a title chase. If that view holds, City would be preparing for a manager change while still trying to finish a season that could yet run to the last day.

Bernardo Silva told the that Guardiola’s future is up to Guardiola, and also said: "He changed the way I see football" and "Eighty per cent of my career was with him as my manager. All the things I hoped to achieve were with him. The relationship we have is very strong with the frustrations and the achievements."

Bournemouth on Tuesday night

Manchester City hope to beat Bournemouth on Tuesday night to take the title race into the final day, with Arsenal due to face Burnley on Monday Night Football 24 hours earlier. Guardiola’s next move matters because City are not just protecting a trophy bid; they are deciding whether the manager who has run the team through this run stays for the final year of his deal or leaves with the season still live.
