Paris Saint-Germain F.C. manager Luis Enrique has described Pep Guardiola as the greatest football manager of all time following confirmation of his departure from Manchester City F.C. at the end of the season.
Speaking in an interview with Movistar Plus+, Enrique said Guardiola remains a major inspiration to him and admitted he was surprised by the decision to leave the Premier League champions.
“I don’t believe Pep Guardiola is leaving. I don’t believe it and I don’t want to believe it, because I would like him to stay for many more years,” Enrique said.
“When I was the national team coach, he used to ask me about the job. He has always had that desire to coach a national team. I don’t think he will take over Italy, but you can’t rule it out either.
“I would like to see Pep at the highest level for many years because he is a role model for me, he is the best manager of all time.”
