​Busquets tempted to leave Barcelona for Guardiola at Man City

Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets has indicated he could be tempted to join his former boss Pep Guardiola at Manchester City next season.

"I have always said there are just two people who could make me change my decision to stay at Barcelona," the Spain international told ESPN.

"One of those two people is my wife. The other person is Guardiola.

"It's clear that I owe Pep a lot and I would be honoured to work with him again."

Busquets did suggest it was unlikely Guardiola would try to take him away from Barca.

"He knows that Barcelona are my club and it's his club as well," Busquets said.

"He knows it's best for the club and for me to stay here and I don't think he will ask me to leave Barcelona.

"I hope that when I end my career, I go down in history as a great team player, who won titles and excelled. I want to become one of the players with the most games for Barcelona."
