Josep \"Pep\" Guardiola Sala (Catalan pronunciation: [\u02c8p\u025bb \u0261w\u0259\u027e\u00f0i\u02c8\u0254l\u0259];^[3]^[4]^[5] born 18 January 1971) is a Catalan professional football manager and former player from Spain who is the manager of Premier League club Manchester City.^[6] Guardiola is the only manager to win the continental treble twice and he holds the record for the most consecutive league games won in La Liga, Bundesliga, and the Premier League.^[a] He is considered to be one of the greatest managers of all time.^[8]^[9]^[10] \n

Guardiola was a defensive midfielder who usually played in a deep-lying playmaker's role. He spent the majority of his career with Barcelona, forming a part of Johan Cruyff's Dream Team that won the club's first European Cup in 1992, and four successive Spanish league titles from 1991 to 1994. He captained the team from 1997 until his departure from Barcelona in 2001. Guardiola then had stints with Brescia and Roma in Italy, Al-Ahli in Qatar and Dorados in Mexico. He was capped 47 times for the Spanish national team and appeared at the 1994 FIFA World Cup, as well as at UEFA Euro 2000. He also played friendly matches for Catalonia.\n

After retiring as a player, Guardiola briefly managed Barcelona B and won the Tercera Divisi\u00f3n title before taking charge of the first team in 2008. In his first season, Guardiola led Barcelona to the continental treble of La Liga, the Copa del Rey and the UEFA Champions League, becoming the youngest manager to win the latter competition. He was named the FIFA World Coach of the Year in 2011 after leading the club to another La Liga and Champions League double in the 2010\u201311 season. Guardiola ended his four-year Barcelona stint in 2012 with 14 honours, a club record.\n

After a sabbatical period, Guardiola joined Bayern Munich in 2013 and won the Bundesliga in each of the three seasons, including two domestic doubles. He left the club for Manchester City in 2016 and has won six Premier League titles: his first title in his second season in charge broke numerous domestic records as the team became the first to attain 100 points in a single season. He also led City to a domestic treble in 2018\u201319, their first Champions League final in 2020\u201321, and their first Champions League title as part of his second continental treble in 2022\u201323.\n
