Manchester City's recent FA Cup triumph has done little to ease mounting speculation over Pep Guardiola's long-term future, with the club's hierarchy actively preparing contingency plans amid widespread internal expectations that the Catalan coach will depart this summer. Guardiola's contract runs until 2027, yet repeated reports from credible sources highlight tangible uncertainty, including the impending exit of key staff like fitness coach Lorenzo Buenaventura and formal discussions about whether he will honor the final year. Despite the manager's recent public insistence on having "one more year" left, trader sentiment reflects the wisdom of crowds pricing in a strong likelihood of change before the end of 2026, driven by the pattern of similar high-profile exits after extended tenures and City's proactive succession planning.
