In terms of performance and achievements given, it is clear that Manchester City will continue to try to keep Pep in his contract but on the other hand Pep is one of the coaches who has his own level of desire. He will continue to try at several big clubs until his targets are achieved, once his targets and desires are achieved then there is no real reason to stay and that he has always done at several clubs before.

He was very successful at Barcelona even with his Sextuple but he went to Bayern even though he failed in the Champions League but he managed to bring Bayern very successful and now at Manchester City. Pep's target of getting the Champions League and Treble this season has actually satisfied him and there is nothing to look for anymore so he decided not to extend the contract at Manchester City.

Pep Guardiola's achievement since become Manchester City manager in 2016

5x Primer League tittles
4x EFL Cup
2x FA Cup
1x UEFA Champion League

Actually Pep Guardiola will collect many tittles few years later with Manchester City and I don't management won't extend his contract, Pep Guardiola have been success manager with Manchester City actually after winning Champion League tittle and how City dominance in Primer League since last 6 years after Pep arriving he miss one season for winning Primer League tittles.

Actually, seeing the current conditions, management does not want to extend Pep's contract but appreciates Pep's decision to go looking for a new adventure because after all he is a highly respected coach at Manchester City and he is the only coach who can make a new history for Manchester City.
Manchester City did not want him to be shackled and I like what was done because both parties were really mature in addressing this.
Manchester City are also aware that even though Pep is a hero for them, they still have to respect what Pep decides.

Now before Pep really leaves they have to prepare with some searches that match their criteria, even though they are aware that this change will provide a transition but still they also have to do it because Pep is not willing to extend his contract when it ends.
