‘Guardiola could walk and Pochettino is a good fit’ – Lescott predicts change at Man City in 2021

Pep Guardiola looks likely to leave Manchester City in 2021 and former Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino would be a good option to fill the Catalan’s shoes if he is still available next summer, says Joleon Lescott.

There is currently no vacancy at the Etihad Stadium, however, Guardiola has entered the final year of his contract and is yet to open himself up to talks regarding an extension.

Given his history when it comes to spending short but successful spells in any given job, plenty have suggested that the 49-year-old is taking in a long goodbye.
