Guardiola rules out Italy job

Manchester City legend Pep Guardiola has ended speculation over a possible move to the Italy national team, confirming he will not be taking the vacant head coach role. The Spaniard, who left the Premier League champions earlier this summer, made his stance clear after being repeatedly linked with the Azzurri post.

Guardiola’s statement puts to rest a saga that had dominated Italian football discourse in recent weeks. The 55-year-old is expected to take a sabbatical after an intense spell at the Etihad, with no immediate plans to return to management.

Newly promoted Como are stepping up their pursuit of Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah, with sources indicating a third bid is imminent. The Serie A newcomers have already seen two offers rejected for the 27-year-old, but remain determined to land their primary defensive target.

Chalobah, who came through Chelsea’s academy, has been told he can leave Stamford Bridge this window. Como view him as a statement signing to consolidate their place in Serie A next season.
