Manchester City are in a tough spot as far as their season is concerned. Manager Pep Guardiola has lost four consecutive games at the club for the first time as City dropped five points below League leaders Liverpool. However, the Spaniard hasn’t been one to shy away from a challenge. That is exactly what happened this time as reports point to Guardiola extending his stay at the Etihad.

Reports state that Pep Guardiola has agreed to stay one more year at City, at least until June 2026. Even though there were rumors that Pep will part ways with the club at the end of the season, Guardiola has now put an end to all the chatter.

With Liverpool threatening to snatch the Premier League title, Guardiola’s extension is surely bound to instill a sense of confidence in his squad. As things stand, City have 23 points from their first 11 games, with their most recent outing ending in a 2-1 loss to Brighton.
