Guardiola irked by constant speculation

Bayern Munich coach Pep Guardiola admits he "can't be
bothered" answering constant questions concerning
speculation about English clubs with his current contract due
to expire in June.
Chelsea, whose manager Jose Mourinho is under severe
pressure, are the latest in a string of Premier League clubs
who have been linked to Guardiola recently by the UK media.
In past months, the Spaniard has been heavily linked to
Manchester City and even the Brazil and England national
team coaching jobs, but now he has had enough.
"The subject is always the same. I am not going to answer
them. I can't be bothered with it anymore," said Guardiola
when asked by reporters about the Chelsea rumours.
Bayern have a crunch German Cup second-round tie at
holders Wolfsburg on Tuesday, which is Guardiola's priority.
"Wolfsburg is more important. It's like a final for us and there
are far more important topics to talk about," added Guardiola,
who has won 19 trophies as a coach with Barcelona and
Bayern.
"Please, we are only in October! We still have seven months to
go and I need to win, win, win."
The Bavarian giants are peerless in the Bundesliga and are on
course to claim a record fourth straight German league title
next May.
Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has said he wants
to extend Guardiola's current contract as quickly as possible.
Club captain Philipp Lahm has already told Guardiola that the
team want him to stay, but, should the Spaniard leave, media
reports suggest Carlo Ancelotti has been approached as a
possible replacement.
