Manchester City chief executive Ferran Soriano insists manager Pep Guardiola will not skip out on his contract.

With City's title defence in ruins following Friday night's 3-2 defeat at Wolves , the Blues' chief has come out to insist that Guardiola is going nowhere.

Soriano, speaking at the Dubai International Sports conference, said: “Pep has said so many times that he has a contract that covers this year, plus next year too.

“There is no discussion about this.

“Pep will stay and he'll leave at the right time one day – and the club is strong enough to survive any change.

“But as Pep said many times, he's not leaving."
