Manchester City’s board and head coach Josep Guardiola are expected to hold a key meeting toward the end of the season to define the club’s next roadmap. The question is simple: will the partnership continue, or will this chapter be closed — that will be the focus of the talks.
According to a report shared by the Topskills Sports UK account on X, Guardiola’s future is directly tied to the results achieved in the coming months. If the “Citizens” fail to meet the level expected by the club’s leadership this season, the coach’s departure could be considered a realistic option.
The source notes that one possible scenario is that if Guardiola leaves the team in the summer of 2026, Manchester City are seriously considering Italian coach Enzo Maresca as his replacement. It is also claimed that the “Citizens” have already made contact with Maresca’s representatives.
It is also recalled that Enzo Maresca, who was recently dismissed from his role at Chelsea, is highly interested in the idea of working at Manchester City, with indications that he is ready to take the head-coach seat.
At the same time, Guardiola’s current contract with Manchester City runs until the summer of 2027. So legally he is still tied to the club, but in football “having a contract” does not always mean “the partnership is guaranteed” — fans know this well.
In short, the months ahead could be decisive for Manchester City not only in the league table, but also in shaping the club’s long-term strategy. And fans keep asking the same question: will results arrive, or will a new era begin?
