Pep Guardiola in Crisis: Could His Divorce Affect Manchester City?
The divorce between Pep Guardiola and Cristina Serra is causing concern at Manchester City. Is the team's performance at risk this season?
Guardiola faces his most delicate moment
In Manchester City circles, everyone is talking about it. The relationship between Pep Guardiola and his wife Cristina Serra is officially over, and British media outlets claim that what was once a discreet and respectful separation has now become a delicate process involving negotiations that could become public in a matter of weeks.
From stable relationship to legal agreement
Pep and Cristina have already hired the same lawyer to carry out a “friendly” separation without legal disputes. However, sources indicate that the relationship has simply become cordial.
The signing of Guardiola's contract renewal with City until 2027 is said to have been the triggering factor. Cristina, who never felt comfortable in Manchester, returned to Spain years ago, and since then the emotional distance between them has reportedly grown.
Doubts at Manchester City
Pep Guardiola's emotional stability could be at stake just when Manchester City needs concentration the most. With a demanding schedule and the goal of maintaining its status in Europe, the club will have to be mindful of the collateral effects of this breakup.
