Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has avoided answering questions about his future at the Etihad Stadium, despite ongoing speculation about his contract expiring in 2027. While City officials publicly expect him to remain for another season, sources indicate Guardiola may decide his post-City career during the international break. At Friday's press conference, Guardiola deflected direct inquiries, stating, "I spoke many times about that," referencing his existing deal.

The 55-year-old remains focused on the title race, with Manchester City needing three wins from their final games to secure the Premier League crown. A pivotal FA Cup quarterfinal against Liverpool looms, with Guardiola warning his players not to underestimate Arne Slot's revitalized side despite their inconsistent form.
