Pep Guardiola has hinted he could extend his Manchester City tenure beyond his current 2027 contract, suggesting next season will see the club reach its full potential. The Spanish manager, in his 10th year at the Etihad, dropped the comment while acknowledging City's current squad remains a work in progress despite competing on multiple fronts.

Guardiola's future has been under speculation after a season of transition at City, where they remain in contention for the Premier League title, Champions League, FA Cup, and Carabao Cup. The 54-year-old described his team as "not complete" and emphasized they are still in a "process of many changes." His optimism about next season suggests he sees unfinished business with the club's evolution.

The timing of Guardiola's comments comes as City prepare for their fifth meeting with Newcastle this season, followed by a Champions League last-16 clash against Real Madrid. The manager also criticized the Premier League's scheduling priorities, noting Spanish clubs receive more favorable arrangements for European fixtures than English teams.
