FA ready to offer Pep Guardiola £10m-a-year deal to manage England
The FA want Pep Guardiola as England's next manager
PEP GUARDIOLA is a shock target for the England job, according to reports.
 
Bayern Munich boss Guardiola is out of contract at the end of the season and could be set to leave the Allianz Arena.

The former Barcelona coach is a long-term target for both Manchester clubs and was on Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich's shortlist of managers before Jose Mourinho took charge.
 
And Arsenal have also been linked with Guardiola should Arsene Wenger ever move on from the north London club.

But according to The Sun, England chiefs are plotting a shock move to pip the Premier League's elite to land the coveted 44-year-old.
 
It is claimed the FA are prepared to pay Guardiola a stunning £10million a year to become Roy Hodgson's successor.

Hodgson's current deal runs until Euro 2016, with England's performance at the tournament expected to have a huge impact on whether he is handed a new contract or axed.

Guardiola has been long tipped for a move to the Premier League but should he indicate any interest in the England job then the FA would make their move.

Manchester City made Guardiola their No 1 target to replace Manuel Pellegrini, 62, this summer but decided to stick with the Chilean.

United boss Louis van Gaal's contract runs until 2017, when the 64-year-old has suggested he will retire to spend time with his wife.

Mourinho, 52, has seen his position come under pressure already this season but there is no suggestion he will be leaving Chelsea.

And while there are always rumours over Wenger's future at the Emirates, the 65-year-old has no plans to step down any time soon.

Despite interest across England in Guardiola, Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge is confident the former midfielder will extend his stay in Germany.

"I am optimistic about Pep's renewal," Rummenigge said.

"We have a great offer on the table, which you cannot just shove aside.
 
"We have a first-class team, a fantastic club, a great stadium and a wonderful city to offer.

"We will have a serious conversation with Pep in the upcoming weeks and we will see what comes from that.

"I want to win the Champions League another time - with Guardiola in charge."
