Pep Guardiola's remarkable reign at Manchester City has reached a crossroads, with the legendary manager expressing uncertainty about his long-term future after securing a historic fourth consecutive Premier League title.City's 3-1 victory over West Ham on Sunday marked their sixth top-flight triumph in seven seasons under Guardiola, a feat surpassed only by Sir Alex Ferguson's 13 Premier League titles with Manchester United. The Catalan has transformed City into a dominant force, leading them to an unprecedented domestic treble in 2019 and emulating Manchester United's 1999 treble last year.However, after achieving such sustained success, Guardiola admits it is becoming increasingly difficult to find motivation. "The reality is I'm closer to leaving than to staying," he told Sky Sports. "It's eight years, will be nine."Guardiola's contract expires at the end of next season, and he is unsure whether he will extend his stay at the Etihad. "Right now my feeling is I want to stay next season," he said. "We talked with the club, we have time to talk next season because I have to see the players as well (to see) if they follow me, they follow us, for many reasons. I will stay and during the season we will talk when calm."Guardiola's comments have raised questions about his future plans. He has previously expressed a desire to return to Barcelona, where he enjoyed immense success as a player and manager. However, he has also spoken highly of the Premier League and the challenges it presents.For now, Guardiola is focused on enjoying the moment and celebrating City's latest triumph. "When I moved here if someone had said I would win six leagues in seven seasons I would say you're insane -- no way," he said.But the question remains: how much longer will Pep Guardiola's extraordinary journey at Manchester City continue?
