Pep Guardiola won 41 titles. Only Alex Ferguson has more in the entire history of football. 🏆
But when he was asked why he left the bench after a decade at Manchester City, he did not talk about trophies or records. He talked about his 95-year-old father, Valentín. “My father is 95 years old; I want to spend more time with him and my family”, said Guardiola, 55, on the OKX podcast. And he shared something his father still repeats to him today: “Be a good person, always be kind to people. It is the best advice I have received”.
He turned down the chance to manage the Italy national team. He says he does not miss football. He now prioritizes sport, his children and his siblings. At 55, the most decorated coach on the planet chose the one thing no title can replace. ❤️
