Josep Guardiola would like to one day follow in Sir Alex Ferguson's footsteps and lead Manchester United for a long time. This is written in the book "Pep Confidential: The Inside Story of Pep Guardiola's First Season at Munich Bayern" dedicated to the coach's first years at Bayern club. The author of the book, Marti Perarnau, wrote that J. Guardiola personally told his assistant Manel Estiarte in 2011 that he was interested in the Manchester United team. "It was May 4th. They were standing at Old Trafford stadium and watching as A. Ferguson's team defeated Schalke 4:1. Pep turned to his friend and said, 'I like the atmosphere here. I can see myself working here one day.'" J. Guardiola is currently working at Bayern Munich club, while the Manchester United team's wheel is in the hands of the savior called Louis van Gaal. The latter was Guardiola's coach when he still played for Barcelona. When Guardiola left Barcelona, there were speculations in the media that he could turn to Manchester United. In April, journalists asked Guardiola about the possibility of working at Manchester United. "I am here. I am at Bayern club and I want to be here for two more years," he said.
