During his career, Pep Guardiola is one of the most successful coaches in football history. According to estimates, he won 32 titles with Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Man City. For that reason, this talented general admitted that he wanted to lead the national team to have the opportunity to work at the World Cup.
Man City’s head coach shared on ESPN: “I want to lead the national team to participate in big tournaments like the World Cup and Euro. I really enjoy that.
I don’t know if any team wants me to lead or not. First, they need your service. Like when I first started my coaching career, I didn’t dare dream of winning big titles. At that time, I just thought it was good to have a job.
I really enjoyed the experience of working at the World Cup, Euro or Copa America. I don’t know when I will be able to work in those tournaments. It could be 5, 10 or 15 years from now, but really, I want to attend the World Cup as a coach.”

Last month, the British press reported that the England team wanted to invite Pep Guardiola to replace Gareth Southgate, whose contract will expire at the end of this year. If that happens, the Spanish strategist will have a good opportunity to work for the national team. Besides, the Brazilian team also wants to find a world-class coach like Ancelotti or Pep Guardiola.
In other developments, Pep Guardiola admitted he was ready to welcome Wayne Rooney after the former Man Utd striker admitted he wanted to work at Man City. He said: “Rooney’s move to Man City is a good thing for us, even though he used to play for Man Utd.
Rooney is one of the best strikers in England. The fact that he admitted he wanted to work at Man City made me very happy. If I remember correctly, Rooney’s home is not very far from Man City’s headquarters. I will warmly welcome him if he comes here.”
