Pep Guardiola may leave Bayern Munich at the end of the season on a bad note, as speculation claims that the Spaniard had a huge spat with members of the medical staff after the club crashed out of the Champions League on Tuesday.
This will just add fuel to the debate questioning whether the former Barca boss’ reign at the Allianz Arena was successful or forgettable, having failed to improve – or match – the heights set by the treble-winning squad that he inherited from former manager Jupp Heynckes.
As written by popular tabloid Bild, Guardiola lashed out at the medical staff in anger after the final whistle to the 2nd leg tie, blaming them for the Bavarians’ European exit after watching his last chance of winning the Champions League with Bayern before his departure for Man City go up in flames.
According to the German newspaper, Pep was infuriated at seeing the physios’ inability to ready a couple of star names who were injured, especially since Los Rojiblancos worked wonders to get Diego Godin fit for the match.
The medical staff are said to have responded by saying "Can't say that, you must not say that. You have all the players available. All except Robben and Badstuber”, as the manager's assistant Manel Estiarte reportedly yelled “S***, crap” at them.
Franck Ribery reportedly had to step in to cool down the situation before things escalated even further, as cracks continue to emerge in Guardiola’ last season with the reigning Bundesliga champions.
