Guardiola was interviewed by GQ, and at the end of the interview, he was asked how long his career as a coach would be.

Guardiola: "I don't know. The truth is, I don't know, because you can also have a big team of work to help you with something. I know that after this stage of working with Manchester City I will stop, that's for sure, decided, more certain than decision."

"I don't know how long I will stop, one year, two years, three years, five years, ten years, fifteen years, I don't know. But after this stage of working with Manchester City I will stop, because I need to stop, focus on myself, focus on my body, focus on… In Catalan, they say badar, badar, badar, badar, badar, I want to do this, just stop and look at the cows passing by as the train passes by."

"My grandpa used to say, you look at me like a cow watching the train pass by. That's it, you have to stop and watch it pass by, and live. I never thought I would coach, I would coach, go to Germany, go to England, be a coach at Barcelona, or play football for Barcelona. "

"We thought we were in control, but no, there would be something going on, put something in front of me, and then I would say, Oh, do I want to do this? If I don't, then I'll find a way. I think my plan now is this, stop, stop, and then let's look again."
