Pep Guardiola is arguably the best manager in the world at the minute and his success over the last few years at Premier League champions Manchester City speaks for itself. With the Spaniard reportedly close to agreeing a new deal with the Citizens, many fans have been wondering how much the boss is currently earning?
What Is Pep Guardiola’s Salary At Manchester City?
Pep Guardiola is undoubtedly one of the most successful managers of all time and his current salary for Manchester City reflects that, with the Spaniard on £20m a year.
That means that Guardiola earns approximately £385,000 per week at the Premier League champions according to CelebrityNetWorth, with a total net worth of £50m.
Pep Guardiola’s Success At Manchester City
Pep Guardiola’s extremely high salary has certainly been justified during his time in England, with his latest success coming last season when he won a coveted treble with an unstoppable team.
But Guardiola’s success at Manchester City started long before winning the treble last year, almost immediately after he first joined the Premier League side in February of 2016.
After finishing third in his first season in charge of an English club, Guardiola went on to break the record for most consecutive wins in the Premier League with 18 in just his second year in charge.
In just his second season in charge Guardiola led Manchester City to their first Premier League title since 2014, which was the first of five titles over the next six years.
Manchester City then went on to win Premier League titles in 2017/18, 2018/19, 2020/21, 2021/22, 2022/23, making Guardiola one of the most decorated managers in the English top division in record time.
However last season was well and truly the icing on the cake for Guardiola at Manchester City, with the Spaniard securing an incredible treble winning the Champions League, FA Cup and Premier League in 2022/23.
Pep Guardiola Current Deal
Pep Guardiola is reportedly close to signing an extension with Manchester City, with the Premier League champions desperate to keep hold of their sensational manager.
Guardiola put pen to paper on his latest deal in November last year, with the huge contract keeping him in England until at least 2025.
Managerial & Player Career Before Manchester City
Pep Guardiola was of course also a successful player before he stepped into management, playing 479 games for Barcelona winning an impressive 16 trophies during his career.
The Spaniard was a key player in Barcelona’s engine room for 17 years before retiring, when he was appointed as his former side’s manager in 2008.
Barcelona became the first Spanish club to ever complete the elusive treble during his first year in charge, winning the cup, Champions League and La Liga in 2008/09.
After building an impressive profile at Barcelona during his time in charge, Guardiola made the bold move to switch to Germany t0 take the helm at Bayern Munich.
Guardiola won the Bundesliga in all three of his years in charge at Bayern, but failed to ever lift the Champions League with the side before joining Manchester City in 2016/17.
