Pep Guardiola has indicated readiness to see out his managerial career at Manchester City.
The Spaniard, 54, said he would not leave until he’s 76.
Guardiola gave the assurances to the club’s fans while reacting to speculations about his future.
Football journalist, David Ornstein reports there is a growing feeling at the Etihad this could be Guardiola’s last season at the club.
Arriving in 2016, he is currently the Premier League’s longest-serving manager.
However, he noted that rumour of potential departure has become an annual occurrence.
Guardiola, who signed a two-year extension last season, pointed out that there were still 18 months left on his contract.
“For the last three or four years in certain periods I’ve been asked that question,” Guardiola said in response to a question about his future.
“Sooner or later, I don’t know, 75 or 76, I will quit Manchester City. I understand that question when I have the end of contract but I have 18 months.
“I am so delighted and happy and excited with the development of the team and being there. But that question happens every single season at certain points.
“I am OK. The club and myself we are incredibly connected in terms of the decisions we have to take and what is going to happen is going to happen.
“There are no discussions. End of the subject. Yes, I will not be here forever, I said that in my second or third season here. None of us will be here forever.
“But there are not discussions. What is going to happen will happen. Of course the club must be prepared for everything, like with the players, the CEO.
“Except the owners, unless they decide to sell the club, which I don’t think is going to happen, the rest, they have to be prepared. But that subject is not on the table right now.”
