Guardiola Named Premier League Manager Of The Season After Leading Man City To Record Fourth Consecutive Title

Pep Guardiola has been named Premier League Manager of the Season for the fifth time.

The Catalan beat Mikel Arteta, Jurgen Klopp, Unai Emery and Andoni Iraola to claim the award.

Guardiola led Man City to an unprecedented fourth successive Premier League title, finishing two points ahead of Arsenal.

City have now surpassed Manchester United to become the only side to win the Premier League four times in a row.

After winning the prize, Guardiola said: “I am so proud to be manager of this group of players and to work alongside the brilliant coaches and support staff every day.

“Winning four titles in a row is one of the proudest achievements of my career. This is the toughest league in the world and our competitors have played some incredible football.”

It is the sixth title the club have won under Guardiola – who did cast doubt over his Man City future after Sunday’s win against West Ham with one year left on his current contract.

“The reality is I’m closer to leaving than to staying,” the City manager told Sky Sports.

“It’s eight years, will be nine. Right now my feeling is I want to stay next season. We talked with the club, we have time to talk next season because I have to see the players as well, if they follow me, they follow us.

“I want to stay next season. During the season, we will talk. But after eight, nine years…”

His eight years in the Premier League is the longest he has been at any club in his managerial career, winning every trophy available domestically and internationally.

Guardiola and Man City can add another to their cabinet when they take on Man Utd in Saturday’s FA Cup final at Wembley.
