Former Bayern Munich coach Ottmar Hitzfeld has said the current Bayern coach Pep Guardiola will join Manchester City.
The Spaniard is in the final year of his contract with the German champions, and has been strongly linked with both Manchester teams.
Guardiola has always been a name rumoured around Old Trafford, since the last few years of the Fergie era, and the current United struggles has further heightened the rumours.
But an insider with the Bayern believes Pep will leave at the end of the season and most likely join City.
"My reading is that Pep will leave Bayern because Manchester City will loosen the purse strings even more." Hitzfeld said in an interview with swiss paper Blick.
This may come as a blow to United as he is one of the most preferred by the fans to replace Van Gaal.
