Barcelona Coach Pep Guardiola's Contract Signing Delayed Until February 23 - Report
Pep Guardiola's contract extension has been held back by a day, according to Marca. Originally scheduled for Tuesday, the 40-year-old tactician will officially sign his new Barcelona deal on Wednesday at around 1300 CET, after the team's training session.
The extension will stand for just one more season, as Guardiola feels it's better for both himself and the club to work on a year-by-year basis, allowing freedom for both parties.
Guardiola has enjoyed great success since taking the reins at Barcelona, winning the treble in his first season, and the Liga title in his second campaign.
Should he complete his new contract, he will be Barcelona's fourth longest serving manager in the club's illustrious history.
