Pep Guardiola is the favourite to win the 2023 UEFA Men's Coach of the Year after being nominated alongside Luciano Spaletti and Simone Inzaghi
Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has been nominated for the 2023 UEFA Men’s Coach of the Year alongside Italian history maker Luciano Spalletti and Inter gaffer Simone Inzaghi, who reached the UEFA Champions League final with the Nerazzuri.
Guardiola nominated for UEFA Award
Guardiola led Manchester City to a famous treble, winning the UEFA Champions League, Premier League, and FA Cup titles in the 2022/23 season.
The Spanish gaffer has also claimed the 2023 UEFA Super Cup and could claim a fifth trophy for Manchester City before the year is out, with the FIFA Club World Cup set to take place later in the year.
Guardiola has never won the UEFA Coach of the Year award since its inception in 2020 but is the favourite to clinch the 2023 crown after an incredible season with the Cityzens.
