In a recent interview with BBC Sport, Balague dropped a bombshell announcement about Pep Guardiola’s future plans. He asserted that the Spanish tactician aims for a different vision outside the confines of club soccer. “He’s got this idea of after club football becoming a national manager,” Balague disclosed, hinting at the prospect of Pep Guardiola leading a national team. “I am sure there will be a long list of nations who want him — Holland, Argentina, England.”

The Spanish journalist suggested that the upcoming season and the one following might be the last chapters in Guardiola’s illustrious club management career. “He wants to enjoy being physically at the peak of his powers so I think he’s got a year-and-a-half left as a club manager; this season and next season. He may win a World Cup, or European Championship, or Copa America!” Balague added.
