Premier League icon Alan Shearer forecasts Pep Guardiola will transition to international management following his departure from Manchester City this summer. The final Premier League match against Aston Villa on Sunday (May 20) is expected to be Guardiola's last game after a decade leading the club. According to Shearer, the 55-year-old Spaniard may take a year-long break before returning to management, possibly with an international team like Brazil. The former England captain believes international management would offer a different challenge compared to the relentless pressure at City. "I can envision him leading an international team; I won't claim it's less demanding, but perhaps it won't be as intense," Shearer told Betfair. This comes as former Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca is widely reported to be set to succeed Guardiola at the Etihad Stadium. Guardiola's exit follows City's loss of the Premier League title to Arsenal this season, ending their recent dominance. For Nigerian fans who have closely followed Guardiola's successful Man City era, this transition means the beginning of a new chapter at the club next season. Will Guardiola's potential move to international football change how you follow Premier League dynamics?
