Pep Guaridola’s already chosen which club he’s joining amid Manchester United

Pep Guardiola’s decision to leave Bayern Munich at the end of the season puts the German champions in a situation they experienced at a similar stage three years ago. “I’m not disappointed in him”.

German football giants Bayern Munich announced on their website on Sunday that their manager Pep Guardiola will leave the club at the end of this season and will be replaced by Carlo Ancelotti.

Trapattoni – who managed Bayern over two stints – backed three-time Champions League-winning coach Ancelotti to keep Bayern among Europe’s elite.

‘Carlo is a quiet, balanced professional who knows how to deal with stars and play a game with a lot of variety. “We are looking forward to working together”, Rummenigge told Bild newspaper.

Manuel Pellegrini insists it’s “easy” to focus on his job as Manchester City boss despite talk about Pep Guardiola replacing him.

A Thomas Mueller penalty on Saturday sealed Bayern’s 1-0 win at Hanover 96 which left the German league leaders eight points clear in the table and on course to become the first club to win a fourth straight Bundesliga.

Guardiola has been touted as a possible replacement for Jose Mourinho at Chelsea, while he has also been linked with Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United. “I honestly wish Bayern Munich and my friend Pep Guardiola the best for the current season”, Ancelotti said.

The former Barcelona trainer is in the final six months of the three-year contract he signed in 2013 and has turned down a new deal with the Bavarian powerhouse.

The transition did not harm Bayern at the time as they went on to complete a title treble in the final games under Heynckes.

Manchester United officials have persistently distanced themselves from any moves to recruit Guardiola, fuelling the suspicion that Old Trafford chief are fully aware of the Spaniard’s decision to join a rival club.

Guardiola’s glittering coaching reputation was forged during four incredibly successful years at Barcelona, a club he had represented with great distinction as a player having been part of their so-called “Dream Team” of the 1990s under the leadership of Johan Cruyff. This is absolutely true after impressive spells with Porto, Chelsea, Inter Milan, and Real Madrid which yielded a number of domestic league titles and 2 champions’ league crowns with other domestic cups along.
