Pep Guardiola has yet to put pen to paper on a new Bayern deal |
PEP GUARDIOLA could reportedly snub the chance to manage the likes of Chelsea and Manchester City, by signing a new deal with Bayern Munich.
Guardiola has been rather hesitant over committing his future to the Bundesliga powerhouses.
The former Barcelona manager has been sounded as a possible replacement for Jose Mourinho should he be given the sack by Chelsea.
Roman Abramovich is also thought to be a long-term admirer of Guardiola, who led Bayern to a league and cup double in his first season in charge.
Manchester City have been keeping an eye on his progress, with Manuel Pellegrini’s long-term future thought to be far from certain.
Manchester United could also make a swoop with Louis van Gaal already hinting he could leave Old Trafford in 2017.
Recent reports had suggested that a contract offer for Guardiola is on the table.

The £17million-a-year deal, which would cement Guardiola as one of the highest paid managers in football could be signed before Christmas, according to the Daily Mirror.
It is thought the new deal will be a two-year contract extension, although his representatives may be thinking about where his next move might lie.
