Bayern Munich captain Phillipp Lahm has spoken about his fear that manager Pep Guardiola could potentially be departing from the Bundesliga champions at the end of the season.
Being linked with a move to the Premier League, with Manchester City and Chelsea the names being spoken about, the Spanish manager has reportedly been considering leaving his post at Bayern.
With pressure on Jose Mourinho mounting following yet another disappointing defeat on Saturday, there’s no wonder as to why the two-time Champions League winner is being linked with a move to Stamford Bridge.
According to the Daily Mail, the former Barcelona manager has confirmed that he wants a move to London, making a move to the Blues more likely.
The 2-1 defeat at West Ham on Saturday was Chelsea’s seventh this season, and the bookies now have Guardiola to take charge at Stamford Bridge at 6/1.
Because of all the speculation, Lahm has come out to the press to give his support to his manager, expressing that the whole team want him to stay with the German outfit.
In Quotes via the Express, Lahm said:
The team’s opinion is clear. We enjoy working together with our coach and he is an outstanding manager.
Everything else is not in our hands. The only thing I can say is that the team would like Guardiola to stay.
