Premier League Managers Celebrate Guardiola’s Man City Contract Extension

Premier League managers have expressed their support for Pep Guardiola’s decision to extend his contract with Manchester City for another two years.

They believe that his presence will undoubtedly enhance the quality of the league.

“Everyone wants the best managers and the best players over here,” said Liverpool boss Arne Slot, whose team are five points clear of second-placed City at the top of the league standings. “He is one of the best managers, maybe the best manager.

“He’s won four titles in a row. If he did decide to leave, with the players they’ve got, they wouldn’t be at the bottom of the league.”

On Thursday evening, Manchester City announced that Pep Guardiola signed a contract extension that will keep him at the Etihad until 2027.

This means the Spanish coach will have spent over a decade at the club since joining in 2016, a period marked by an impressive trophy haul that includes six league titles and a Champions League victory.

“I think he’s contributed so much to English football,” said Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe. “I think he’s revolutionized how a lot of teams play. I think he’s incredibly talented and I think it’s good for the English game that he’s still here.

“He will continue to develop and evolve his style and people will potentially continue to follow that. From the competition side, I think it keeps the Premier League as the best game in the world.”

Brighton boss, Fabian Hurzeler agreed, calling it the “best thing that can happen to the Premier League”.

“He is one of the best coaches in the world. With his ideas, he always brings something new to the football stage and it is always a challenge to compete against him,” Hurzeler said.

“He always adapts quickly, always has new ideas and he can always win the game. I’m very happy because we can learn from him and to compete with him is a big, big experience.”
