Man City legend Sergio Aguero has tipped Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta to replace Pep Guardiola as Manchester City manager.
Aguero, in a chat with Stake.com, believes Man City will need to look to the future fairly soon and suggests the club should make a move for one of Guardiola’s most successful disciples.
“Pep has extended his contract, and Arteta has been doing a brilliant job at Arsenal.
“The point is moot right now, but if what you’re looking for is a forward-thinking answer and whether Arteta could be a good manager for City—I’d say he’s qualified for the task.”
Arteta, 42, earned his stripes as a coach under Guardiola, 54, before leaving to become manager of Arsenal back in 2019.
