Table of Contents
Barcelona tactician Pep Guardiola has dropped a heavy hint that he would not continue on at the club after his contract expires next summer.
Guardiola took over at Barça in the summer of 2008 and has already won eight titles including an unprecedented treble of La Liga, Champions League and Copa del Rey in his first campaign.
He signed a one-year contract extension in February to keep him with the Blaugrana until the end of next season.
But the 40-year-old has suggested that he may be looking for a new club when his deal runs out.
He told Italian television channel Rai Sport: "I believe that my period here at Barcelona is coming to an end.
"I am fine here, but when you are at a club like this for a long time it's not possible to stay for a long time.
"Next year will be my fourth consecutive season as coach of Barcelona.
"Such a club must have a lot of courage to take a coach for so long, because the players get tired of coaches and vice-versa.
"In the end you have to realize when it's time to go."
