According to BBC Sport on Friday May 22, 2026, Pep Guardiola has confirmed he will leave Manchester City at the end of the season, closing the chapter on one of the most successful managerial reigns in English football history.
The Spaniard spent ten years at the Etihad Stadium, accumulating 20 major honours during that period.
His achievements include six Premier League titles, a Champions League triumph, and an unprecedented run of four consecutive top-flight championships between 2021 and 2024, a feat never before accomplished by any manager in the English game.
Under his guidance, City evolved from a club with financial ambition into a genuine European powerhouse, reshaping modern football along the way.
Guardiola addressed supporters in a heartfelt statement, reflecting on his bond with the city and its people.
“Nothing is eternal, if it was, I would be here,” he wrote, acknowledging that despite having a year remaining on his contract, the moment had come to move on.He paid tribute to the resilience of Manchester, referencing their industrial heritage, community spirit, and the strength displayed during some of its darkest moments.
He also offered personal gratitude to those who supported him through private difficulties, including the death of his mother during the pandemic.
By the time his final match concludes against Aston Villa this Sunday, Guardiola will have managed 593 games for the club, averaging 2.27 points per outing and lifting a trophy roughly every 30 matches.
Former City assistant Enzo Maresca is widely expected to succeed him in the dugout, having been part of the backroom team during the club’s historic Treble-winning campaign in 2023.
