Pep to Juventus? Here is his response

Pep Guardiola has dismissed rumours linking him with move to Juventus by saying it would be “impossible” for him to leave Manchester City for the Serie A giants – unless he is sacked.

The Spaniard has been linked with a move to the Old Lady in recent days with reports in Italy suggesting that he was in line to replace Massimiliano Allegri in the summer by signing a four-year deal.

“I have two more years here and I am going to move? Impossible,” Guardiola said after City’s 3-1 win over Watford on Saturday.

“Except if they sack me. Then after, I go home. But if Manchester City want me I will stay for two more years and hopefully another one.

“I am not going to go to Juventus in the next two years.”

He added: “I know today that social media has influence but I don’t understand, believe me. I don’t understand.

“Why when someone says something on Twitter do the big newspapers say that for the next four years Pep is going to Juventus?

“I don’t understand why the people saying I am going to Juventus don’t try to call the club or call myself or call my agent or Juventus or Massimiliano Allegri. I feel so sorry for Massimiliano.”
