Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has reportedly separated from his wife, Cristina Serra, after more than three decades together.
Reports claim the couple, who first met in 1994 and married in 2014, have decided to end their relationship while remaining on good terms despite the separation.
Guardiola and Serra have largely lived apart since 2019, when she returned to Barcelona while the City manager remained in England.
Softfootball understands the pair were recently seen together at Christmas with one of their daughters, highlighting that they continue to maintain a respectful relationship for the sake of their family.
The couple share three children and have kept much of their private life away from public attention throughout Guardiola’s coaching career.
Although the reported separation has attracted significant media interest, neither Guardiola nor Serra has made any public statement regarding the development.
The news comes as Manchester City enjoy an improvement in form after a difficult spell earlier in the season. Guardiola’s immediate focus is expected to remain on football as City continue competing across multiple competitions.
