If he leaves he should go at the end of the European seasonPep will stay at least for the CWC.
PL starts very soon after. Get the new manager bed in

That’s why I feel like this would be the biggest commitment he’s ever given the clubWe are going to need a midfield re-build in next two years max.
KDB, Bernardo, Gundogan, Nunes.
Does Pep have the desire to want to oversee it, or is this the perfect time to bring someone else in?
If so, IMHO, the club must surely be looking at Thomas Frank?

The CWC might actually work in our favour with regards to Pep’s futureHe will stay for one more season after the CWC.
I think he'll extend but to chuck one out there similar to players who are out of contract being given a few weeks grace to play in the CWC, Pep could also do the same sort of thing.Pep will stay at least for the CWC.
Frank would be my shout too. Very understated what he has done thereWe are going to need a midfield re-build in next two years max.

Nice one!Sam Lee says he's off at end of the season.
(insert rag **** comments here....)
It will be interesting to see what Alonso does this season at Leverkusen after last season’s miracle, and what Maresca does at Chelsea in what is trying circumstances. Drop Maresca into a stable environment at City and it might just work.Frank would be my shout too. Very understated what he has done there
He should do the right thing and step aside at the end of the European season in that caseI think he'll extend but to chuck one out there similar to players who are out of contract being given a few weeks grace to play in the CWC, Pep could also do the same sort of thing.
I’ve always had some suspicion that Zidane is waiting for Pep to leave us.We are going to need a midfield re-build in next two years max.

I hope he only agrees to stay if the club pulls its finger out and splashes the cash on a KDB replacement and Rodri & Haaland back up. It feels like he’s having to make do and find solutions to problems that better recruitment would solve in an instant.My feeling based on nothing but watching him and the squad (and contrarty to the media rumours and interpretation) is that he will extend. Feelings, eh.
Either way, I take him at his word that nothing is set or decided yet, and that the discussions he has when he sits with the club are going to be open and honest. I'm not buying this theory that everyone around the club already knows he is off.
Couldn’t agree moreI hope he only agrees to stay if the club pulls its finger out and splashes the cash on a KDB replacement and Rodri back up. It feels like he’s having to make do and find solutions to problems that better recruitment would solve in an instant.
Pep will be allowed to refit the team with probably 3/ 4 top young but experienced players to secure our immediate/mid term future.Frank would be my shout too. Very understated what he has done there
LOLI’ve always had some suspicion that Zidane is waiting for Pep to leave us.
Alonso would be a big candidate for me.
If Alonso goes to Madrid, I’d welcome Ancelotti and I think he’d love to come here as he’s never shy of chancing his arm anywhere.
What Luis Enrique did with Barcelona was excellent, hard to judge anyone at Paris though.
Thomas Frank would definitely be amongst the names on that list.
More than anything, I’d like Pep to do a nice round dozen years and sign until 2027 and then again to 2028 for one more year.
