There has been much speculation over the future of Pep Guardiola.

It's no secret that probably every top club in the Premier League has been keeping tabs on the Bayern Munich boss. The former Barcelona man has already been linked with Jose Mourinho's job at Chelsea and speculation has been rife about him replacing Manuel Pellegrini at Man City. Now Cadena COPE are reporting that the Etihad will be the destination for the Spaniard next season. https://twitter.com/CheGiaevara/status/670016173115875329 https://twitter.com/CheGiaevara/status/670016666575728640 Guardiola, who won the treble with Barca last season, is expected to leave Bayern at the end of the season when his contract runs out after three years at the Bavarian giants. Rumours are that managing in the Premier League is on top of Guardiola's list and with his connections with Txiki Begiristain and Ferran Soriano from his Barca days, City would appear to be the obvious destination for him. It follows reports that Man City are launching an audacious £120m bid for Lionel Messi. The Sun claims Messi is open to a £800,000-a-week deal at the Manchester club.
