Guardiola as Germany coach? I would sign him instantly - Gundogan

The Hindu  

If Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola ever became available, Germany should instantly sign him as its national team coach, Germany midfielder Ilkay Gundogan said on Tuesday. Gundogan, who plays for City under the Spaniard, said it was nevertheless unlikely that Guardiola, who has led City to two Premier League titles, would succeed Germany's Joachim Loew, who will step down after 15 years following this summer's Euros. Loew, who steered Germany to the 2014 World Cup title, has decided to leave two years ahead of his contract expiry following a disappointing 2018 World Cup campaign and a recent bad run of results including a 6-0 loss to Spain last year.
