Pep Guardiola has separated with his wife

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has split from his wife Cristina Serra after 30 years of marriage.

On Tuesday morning, January 14, 2024, news broke in Spain that Pep and his wife had agreed to amicably separate.

The couple met in 1994, when Pep was still a player for FC Barcelona in Spain, and after 20 years they immediately agreed to stay together.

Since then, the couple has two daughters, Maria and Valentina, and a son named Marius.

On February 1, 2016, the man was appointed as the new manager of Manchester City and had to immediately move with his family to live in England.

After just three years, Cristina Serra left him and returned to Barcelona, ​​​​and took one child with her. Since then, they have been apart, apart from occasional visits, linked by children’s plans.

It has been reported that the couple have agreed to separate, but are keeping it a secret in order to protect their children.

The news comes as the 53-year-old, who has won various trophies including the UEFA Champions League, is struggling to turn around a team that has lost 12 of its last 20 games, the first time it has happened to him.

His team is currently sixth in the Premier League with 34 points, 12 behind leaders Liverpool.
