It's no secret if Chelsea, with Manchester City, had reportedly keen to make Guardiola manager next season. For Chelsea, the indication was becoming brighter when Rafael Benitez, who acts as caretaker, only contracted until the season finished.
However, Guardiola and Bayern apparently already made an agreement in December. Die Roten was finally announced that Guardiola would be their manager next season in January. By Bayern, the former manager of Barcelona was contracted for three years.
"I respect his decision. Bayern is a bigger challenge for him than, for example, a team like Chelsea," said Beckenbauer told Bild.
"We do not have someone like (Roman) Abramovich. Us also be really precise with our transfers."
"There is still room for improvement for Bayern when later directed Guardiola. Example is continue to press our opponents to counterattack quickly, and look for the player on the field empty."
"For that matter, (Borussia) Dortmund still closer to Barcelona than us."
Bayern are still leading the Bundesliga standings with a collection of 48 points. Their current manager, Jupp Heynckes, had already decided to retire after the season ended.
