Phil Foden would love Pep Guardiola to stay at Manchester City for another year after the Blues boss masterminded a 20th trophy in his decade in charge.<\/p>\n
City beat Chelsea 1-0 to claim a domestic cup double and keep alive hopes of a treble heading into the final two Premier League games of the campaign.<\/p>\n

The Blues boss has had ample opportunity to provide clarity but has yet to do so and while he is under contract for another 12 months, that is no guarantee of him extending his Etihad stay into an 11th year.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m really happy that he\u2019s still here at the moment and let\u2019s see what happens at the end of the season. Hopefully he can be here next season.<\/p>\n
“All I can say is it\u2019s been a pleasure playing under him.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
