Guardiola: My job plans after Man City...

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola admits he wants to coach a national team at a big international tournament.

Guardiola has a deal with City to 2025, though there is a belief he is happy to extend it.

However, beyond City, the Catalan also says: "I would like to train a national team for a World Cup or a European Championship. I would like that.

"I don't know who would want me! To work for a national team they have to want you, just like a club. I never thought about [winning a World Cup]. When I started in this I never thought about winning a league title or winning the Champions League. No. I thought, I have a job? OK.

"I would like to have the experience of living through a World Cup, or a Euro or a Copa América, or whatever it is. I would like that."

He added: "I don't know when that would be, if that is five, 10, 15 years from now but I would like to have the experience of being a manager in a World Cup."
