Pep's contract situation | 2 year extension confirmed! (pg1817)
- Thread starter tolmie's hairdoo
- Start date
Not sure about Amorim, Alonso is a far better fit, perfect character for our club.But if our job is only available in 2026 and let’s say Madrid becomes available in 2025…
I still think it’s Amorim for us.

He'll be off to Madrid asap anyway, so they'll need another one in the door.. cant see him taking any job for long with Madrid always lurking.We don't want Alonso going anywhere near the rags, he is far too good for them.
Not so sure, could see Klopp in Madrid whatever he says publiclyHe'll be off to Madrid asap anyway, so they'll need another one in the door.. cant see him taking any job for long with Madrid always lurking.

If he wants the challenge of a proper league he will come to us.He'll be off to Madrid asap anyway, so they'll need another one in the door.. cant see him taking any job for long with Madrid always lurking.
If he doesn't he will go to Madrid and never show his full potential
Madrid and La Liga is a superb job, as is ours, if he get's an opportunity of either he is a lucky chap.If he wants the challenge of a proper league he will come to us.

I think he’s the best option too, but I also think there is absolutely no chance we can get him to say no to Madrid. Realistically, the Madrid job is going to be available before ours. I just don’t think it’s possible to convince him to reject them and wait for us. I think in all honesty, Madrid are the most attractive club in the world for any player or manager, and then right now we are the next most attractive after them. So we’re of course right up there in attractiveness, but then when you factor in that Alonso has played for Madrid, is Spanish, and the timings line up better for Madrid, I think we have a microscopic chance of getting him.Not sure about Amorim, Alonso is a far better fit, perfect character for our club.
Maybe one year deals are the trick to keep Pep around for a couple seasons longer?
Short term, can leave if he really isn’t feeling it anymore. Not a massive commitment and keeps all options open.
City press pack were so adamant he was at the end of last season but feels like it’s changed now. That’s the thing with Pep you never know.
I’m going to be very surprised if he does sign a one year but also clarifies it’s his last season if/when an extension is announced.

Pretty much how I see it with just connecting the dots. Assume pep will sign the one year extension in November.
Only thing I’m intrigued by is when do city announce the new manager? And it’s feeling very likely it’s going to be the bloke from sporting with his contract also ending in 2026.
Unlike most I’m actually looking forward to a change. Nothing against pep and I am so grateful for everything he has done I just like the idea of a fresh approach with new players.
