However, Guardiola insists McAtee is a part of his plans for next season.
He said, "I’d like him to stay.
"But I understand the players want more minutes. I would like him to stay, he’s a player for the academy, he knows the patterns. He’s a lovely person and trained really good.
"He can play different positions but I don’t know how the squad will be and we will see."
