He can have a well deserved retirement. Thanks for all you've done for the club Txixi.

Be interesting to know who the lined up successor is. Maybe this person could convince Pep to stay

The X comments are hilarious!
If true, that’s not great unless seamless transition with a Pep “friend” is sliding into that role.
It would not be good to see the Big 3 all leave together, esp if the 115 are not resolved.
Never a dull moment, but if Pep really is in Dubai and no news of an extension is incoming, then one senses the end of the Pep era and the beginning of quest for a relatively seamless transition.
With big contracts up and some of our best players being poached by all and sundry, it really could lead to a sea change.
However, NOTHING can change what has been accomplished since 2008, the silverware, the records, the emotions, and, quite frankly, the grown man tears this club has produced for me.
The club is financially solid and there’s no reason it cannot continue at the very top of the PL and CL for many, many years to come, esp given the Academy, the facilities and the quality of the ownership.
One thing I do wonder, though, will City be owned by American owners in the next decade? It feels inevitable and given the ROI of the potential sale of a club at the very pinnacle of the commercial revenue table, it might feel very attractive to Mansour going forward.
Thoughts for another day, perhaps, but the world keeps turning and life (and business) evolves.

Can’t fault itDo you like their transfer business? :)
wow this is big news. I criticized him a lot over the years but his skill set, connections, relation to board and Pep, and some big transfer hits (and net spend trophy lately) was a huge part of City's success over last decade.
any idea of the successor? its a big fucking role and a big guy to replace. any current PL transfer guru/sporting director? or someone from abroad?
