Exclusive: Man City Hope £100m Offer ‘Will Convince’ Guardiola to Stay…

Manchester City board members are hopeful that putting plans in place to make a move for Bayern Munich star Jamal Musiala next year will convince Pep Guardiola to sign a new contract and remain in the Etihad Stadium hot-seat beyond the remainder of the campaign, GIVEMESPORT sources have revealed.

Despite opting to cash in on the likes of Julian Alvarez during the summer transfer window, with the Argentina international completing a £82million switch to Atletico Madrid last month, the Sky Blues have got their Premier League title defence off to the perfect start thanks to maintaining a 100 per cent winning record.

Ilkay Gundogan and Savinho bolstered Manchester City’s squad as director of football Txiki Begiristain led the recruitment drive, with the latter joining for £30.8million after playing a starring role in Girona sealing qualification for the Champions League, and plans have already been put in place to bring in more reinforcements further down the line.

Manchester City have pinpointed Musiala as a potential recruit ahead of the 2025/26 campaign, according to GMS sources, and key decision-makers behind the scenes are desperate for plans to open negotiations for big-name targets of that ilk to persuade Guardiola to extend his Etihad Stadium reign.

The Spanish tactician’s current agreement is due to expire at the end of the season but, having led the Sky Blues to 18 trophies during his spell in charge, the reigning Premier League champions are determined to lure him into extending his stay instead of being forced to find a replacement.

GMS sources have been informed that there is very little doubt that Manchester City will try to sign Musiala within the next 12 months if discussions over a new Bayern Munich contract do not progress as Guardiola is a huge fan and keeping a very keen eye on his situation at the Allianz Arena.
