Guardiola to join Bayern Munich

Former Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola is to take over at Bayern Munich in the summer, with current manager Jupp Heynckes to step down

The 41-year-old left the Spanish giants at the end of last season to take a break from the game, but recently revealed he felt ready to return to management. Premier League clubs Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City were reported to be interested in his services, but he has chosen to test his skills in the Bundesliga.

The four-time European champions tweeted: "Jupp Heynckes will finish his successful career by the end of this season. Pep Guardiola will take over as FC Bayern head coach in July."

Guardiola has agreed a three-year contract, tying him to the club until June 2016. His new employers are 7.50 to win the Champions League this year, while Barca can be backed at 3.00. Manchester United are available at 13.00.

Chief executive Karl-Heinz Rummenigge said: "We are very pleased that we have succeeded in getting Pep Guardiola, who was courted by many famous clubs.

"Pep Guardiola is one of the most successful coaches in the world. We look forward to working with him from July 2013."
