‘Pep needs time to do fantastic job’
The former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss recently stated that he is “approaching the end of my coaching career” after a victory over Burnley which also saw the Catalan’s dealings with the media scrutinised.
However, Guardiola has now clarified his comments, stressing he was talking about his long-term plans and maintaining his commitment to City.
“I am 45. I am not going to retire in two or three years,” Guardiola said at a news conference.
“I love my job. I am in a perfect place to do my job, especially here in England.
“I am not going to train for 60 years. I want to do something else with my life.
“But now, I am not thinking about retiring, no.”
