Pep Guardiola Says He 'Will Return' to Barcelona & Declines to Elaborate on Rumoured Rodri Deal

Pep Guardiola has confessed he would one day like to return to Barcelona in some capacity, and that it will happen 'sooner or later'.

The Manchester City boss also remained tight-lipped on the future of Atletico Madrid's Rodri, who has been strongly linked with a move to the Etihad this season, while equally confessing his admiration for a couple of Barcelona-bound stars.

Speaking to Marca, Guardiola rubbished suggestions that he may return to Barça as the club's president, insisting his knowledge of the role is slim at best, but did admit he one days wishes to return to Catalonia.
