No idea but I heard on the radio a few weeks ago Argentina want him eventually to be their National Manager. Makes a lot of sense, Pep can return home to Catalunia, monitor the players who are mostly European based, Spanish lingo and obviously fly in and out for International games in two week blocks. Will be ideal for him and not as intense on a weekly basis, just hope and pray he gives us at least another 2 years and hopefully 3, it's football on a different planet compared to most Managers.
International management is way beneath him. It's basically semi-retirement. He seems to love working day-to-day with the players so he will look for a "proper" job when he does move on. I can't see it happening until he's won the Champions League with us so I expect maybe a 12 month extension.
