Pep Guardiola has reportedly decided to leave Manchester City by the time the current season ends. The Catalonian manager is believed to have finished a cycle and must leave in the next few months. He would be making way for the new generations and a reconstruction that they want to carry out at the Etihad.
However, what Guardiola didn't expect is that his main option for a change of scenery has been ruled out. It seemed confirmed that the coach would become the new England manager. However, the F.A. considered that it couldn't wait that long and has ended up giving "his" position to Thomas Tuchel, signed for the next competitions.
This decision has left Pep Guardiola in a position he didn't expect, and he obviously has no shortage of options. He has a possibility on the table that he likes a lot but seemed to be reserved for Carlo Ancelotti: the Brazilian national team. The 'Canarinha' has thought of the Catalonian to fight for all the championships again, and the option seems attractive to him.
Months ago, Carlo Ancelotti had it all figured out, but the leak changed everything. He had decided to leave Real Madrid to become the new Brazil coach, but in the end he decided to stay. Now, that place could fall into the hands of Pep Guardiola, who's positive that his next destination will be as a national team coach.
Ancelotti KO'd: Guardiola Takes His Place
Ancelotti knows that he won't last much longer at Real Madrid and the truth is that the option of Brazil seemed very attractive to him. The 'Canarinha' is a dressing room full of Real Madrid players who would've welcomed him with open arms. But the Federation's plans would be different.
After everything that's happened, the big favorite to coach Brazil is Pep Guardiola, who's ready to apply his methodology to the five-time champions, who are going through a bad time.
Meanwhile, Manchester City already knows that Pep Guardiola wants to end his contract in 2025. Everything is changing there: Txiki is also leaving and his replacement is Hugo Viana, from Sporting.
It is from there that Pep Guardiola's replacement will arrive: Ruben Amorim. Soon everything will change, and the Catalonian has decided to coach a national team, with Brazil as his target... something that Carlo Ancelotti is not happy about.
