Pep dreams of WC glory, rules out plans to leave City anytime soon

Pep Guardiola has no plans to leave Manchester City anytime soon but the Spaniard has often thought about what it would be like to guide an international team and says he would love to take on the challenge of a World Cup or Euros campaign.

"I would love to be in a World Cup, in a Euro, a Copa America," Guardiola said.

"I have always thought about it. But it depends on many, many things. If it happens, it's fine. If it doesn't happen, it's more than fine as well."

After winning 12 domestic top-flight titles across Spain, Germany and England, Guardiola endured a trophyless campaign with City last season, a shock to the system after so much success.

While he came in for some stinging criticism over his elite squad's failure on all fronts, Guardiola said he was not interested in “proving the haters wrong” when City start afresh next season.
