Manchester City fans have been reacting to a post on Twitter, which relayed reports that Barcelona presidential candidate Victor Font wants to bring Pep Guardiola back to the Nou Camp.
Josep Maria Bartomeu resigned his presidency earlier this week, after months of criticism on Barcelona’s ailing finances and struggles on the pitch.
Font believes the best way to keep Lionel Messi at Barcelona would beto bring Guardiola back to the Camp Nou.
“Most of the best professionals who know about this style are also fans and love the club, like Pep Guardiola, Xavi, Andres Iniesta, Carles Puyol,” Font told Sky Sports News.
“They are all legends that love Barcelona but do not work for Barca today – we need to bring them back to ensure we will have a very competitive project.
“The only thing Messi needs is to know he is part of a competitive project that aspires to win the next Champions League.
“We have no doubt that if we basically have the honour to take the helm of FC Barcelona we will be able to achieve that (Messi staying).”
Guardiola whose current City contract expires next summer had said he was keen to extend his spell with City.
“I would love to stay longer here. “It is a place I love to be but I have to deserve,” he said.

To be honest I don’t see it happening pep loves man city he said it himself. The structure at man city is built around him and I don’t see him leaving that at any time soon. Plus also the investment he has made in the team.

The redcentric media are desperate for Pep to leave City, and leave the way open for Livarpool and Stretford Rangers to rule the roost again, so highlight anything that will hurry that along!

Pep has done an amazing job and hope he stays but guess what..We are City and we’ve supported the club at its depths and at its highs and many of our treasured hero’s have fallen and have left..We Still Rise and we will go on whatever happens #💙City no matter stays or who goes
