Manchester City lost the Premier League title on Tuesday night, handing it to Arsenal, and Pep Guardiola was asked about his future shortly after the game.
City were held to a 1-1 draw against Bournemouth on Tuesday in a game they had to win to keep their title hopes alive. Eli Junior Kroupi struck in the first half to give the Cherries the lead, and they were holding on until the final minutes.
Erling Haaland found the back of the net in the final seconds, but a draw wasn't enough for City to stand a chance of winning the Premier League title.
Arsenal head into the weekend with a four-point lead, meaning they have been crowned champions.
Guardiola's future has been a huge topic of discussion recently, with suggestions that he is expected to leave at the end of the season.

When asked to clarify his future in an interview after Manchester City's draw against Bournemouth, Guardiola suggested that he will still decide at the end of the season.
"I have one more year on my contract. Like you understand, the first person I have to talk to is my chairman, because both will decide when we finish the season."
When pressed again for more details, Guardiola doubled down on the fact that he has a year remaining on his contract.
"I have one more year on my contract. I will not tell you here, because I have to talk with my chairman, my players, my staff."
"I'm the happiest man on the planet to be at this club."
Manchester City will have been hoping to give Guardiola a proper send-off this weekend, and they'll undoubtedly be disappointed that the news of his potential departure has leaked.

It was the first time Guardiola had spoken since the news broke that he would be potentially leaving the club at the end of the season. It also coincided with the first time he spoke since Arsenal won the Premier League title.
It's an incredibly interesting period for the Spanish manager, and it's certainly not the kind of question he wanted to be asked after losing the crucial game against Bournemouth.
It remains to be seen when Manchester City will confirm the departure of Guardiola, if at all, but there's certainly no smoke without fire.
