Bayern Munich boss Pep Guardiola is interested in succeeding Arsene Wenger as Arsenal manager, claims Spanish football expert Guillem Balague.
The Spaniard announced last month that he will leave the Bavarian giants at the end of the season and admitted last week that he wants to manage in the Premier League.
Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea have been credited with an interest in the former Barcelona boss but the 44-year-old is playing his cards close to his chest.
And, although he believes it is between City and Chelsea for the race to sign the Spaniard, Balague believes Guardiola’s interested in becoming the next Arsenal manager.

‘I agree that Pep would be perfect for Arsenal but, despite the interest of Pep in the London team, I feel he might be going somewhere else,’ Balague told SkySports.
‘As it stands, he has not signed anything and both City and Chelsea think they have a good chance to get him.’
