Mikel Arteta tops Man City shortlist to replace Guardiola

Manchester City have Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta to succeed Pep Guardiola should the Catalan depart.

City are keeping tabs on Arteta, in case Guardiola leaves the club, says Four Four Two.

Guardiola’s future at the Etihad appears uncertain after the Premier League charged City with breaching financial regulations.

The Spaniard previously said he would quick the club over financial rule-breaking.

And Arteta is a potential replacement.

Arteta spent time as assistant coach at the Etihad under Guardiola before taking over at Arsenal.
