MUNICH – Pep Guardiola's agent on Tuesday dismissed rumours the
coach could return to Bayern Munich by insisting his client would
remain with Premier League champions Manchester City, where he is
contracted to 2021.
"Pep has good memories of Munich and still has friends there," his
agent Josep Maria Orotbig told the Bild newspaper. "But he has at no
time shown interest in returning to Germany as a coach."
Orotbig had on Monday hinted a shock switch could be possible by
telling spox.com "in football nothing is certain."
Bayern are seeking a new coach after the dismissal of Niko Kovac
earlier this month. Hansi Flick will lead the German record champions
until at least the turn of the year on an interim basis.
But a return for Guardiola, coach in Munich 2013-2016, seems out of
the question.
"Guardiola always fulfils his contracts," Orotbig said. "I reject all
rumours. Pep is content and very happy in Manchester."
