Manchester City’s long-serving fitness coach Lorenzo Buenaventura is reportedly set to depart, according to coverage referencing his long tenure with Pep Guardiola. Buenaventura has worked closely with Guardiola for more than 15 years, having joined the Barcelona staff in 2009 before later continuing the partnership through subsequent stops, including at Manchester City. Reports frame the move as a potential signal in discussions about Guardiola’s future, amid ongoing public speculation about whether he will continue in his role at the Premier League club. Other outlets describe the departure of a key member of Guardiola’s support staff as a development that could influence how observers interpret Guardiola’s plans, though no definitive statements about his own decision are cited. The information available focuses on Buenaventura’s expected exit and his history with Guardiola rather than on confirmed details of Guardiola’s next steps. City has not been widely cited in the reporting with a formal timeline or official announcement in the excerpts provided.
