Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola is keen to work in Italy.

Guardiola speaks Italian after playing for Roma and Brescia from 2001 to 2003.

“We keep a close eye on Italian football. Pep adores Italy and Italian culture, we talk about it often," City assistant manager Manuel Estiarte told Radio Bruno.

“It's his dream to work in Italy, but as things stand today, there are problems. The culture is completely different in England, they allow you to focus on work during the week.

“In Italy and Spain, the papers have to write something every day and this takes away some of the focus on the work."
