Manchester City want Pep Guardiola to sign a new, long-term contract that would see him extend his trophy-laden stay at the Etihad Stadium beyond a decade.
The Catalan, who has overseen an era of dominance since taking the reins in 2016, is out of contract at the end of next season.
He is yet to make a decision on what happens next and City bosses will support him in whatever he chooses, such is his standing at the club.
However, Mail Sport understands that they would like to see Guardiola, 53, pen a significant extension which would allow him to add to the 17 major trophies he has lifted following his arrival eight years ago.
