Begiristain delighted with new Guardiola deal: He's brought perfection to Man City

Manchester City chief Txiki Begiristain is delighted with manager Pep Guardiola's new deal.

Guardiola has signed terms to 2023.

"He took the club to the top level, the maximum you can get. We wanted to do this attractive football and of course to win and he has done both," he told CityTV.

"We have played unbelievable football and we have won.

"When you do 100 points in the Premier League - such a difficult league - and then in the next one, you have to do 98 to beat an unbelievable team like Liverpool by one... you want to see every weekend and every year the same.

"That kind of perfection you want to feel it every weekend.

"We have shown ambition since the first day and we have to show that and I can see how the players are working in the training sessions and the games.

"The future of this club is absolutely guaranteed with him and the players we have.

"He is always in a constant evolution so he is not the same as at Barcelona, he is not the same as at Bayern and he is not the same as his first season (at City).

"He is always an evolution, he is changing and he shows that work to the players and the players are obeying him."
