Pep Guardiola has stated he will fulfil his contract with Bayern Munich to remain coach until at least the summer of 2016 so Manchester City are set to be disappointed if they approach the Spaniard should Manuel Pellegrini be sacked at the end of the season.
Guardiola is the No1 choice if City remove Pellegrini, who is under severe pressure due to a faltering title defence and an unconvincing Champions League campaign, though the club could still progress to the quarter-finals of the latter competition if a 2-1 deficit to Barcelona is overturned in the last-16 second leg.
However Guardiola, speaking before Bayern’s Cup game against Eintracht Braunschweig, said: “Of course I am going to fulfil my contract here at Bayern. I haven’t had a contract offer [from another club] and I am not waiting for a contract offer from anyone else.
“I have very happy here. I am working for this wonderful club and that is the only thing I am thinking about at the moment.”
Bayern are eight points clear of Wolfsburg at the top of the Bundesliga and drew 0-0 against Shakhtar Donetsk in the first leg of their last-16 Champions League tie.
