Manchester City midfielder Rodri says the players all want manager Pep Guardiola to stay.

Guardiola's deal expires in June.

Rodri told The Times: "We all love him, he has done a fantastic job in recent years. He is our manager and if he decides to stay we will all be so happy. I have now been with Pep for three years and I hope it can be many more.

"It is a fact that coaches get tired. I saw Diego Simeone, a coach who has been in the same team for eleven or twelve years and that is understandable. But with this team we have in the next few years, I think Pep can see the future of this club. He must be here. He is the perfect coach for us and we can win more things together."
