EPL: Wayne Rooney makes title prediction for next season with Guardiola set to leave

Manchester United legend, Wayne Rooney, has said next season’s Premier League title race will be a tight affair.

Rooney was reacting to news that Pep Guardiola is set to leave Manchester City this summer.

Guardiola leaves the English topfight after winning 20 trophies with City including six league titles.

He is set to be replaced by Enzo Maresca at the Etihad.

Rooney said on BBC: “I really do think that opens it up and the Premier League next season is going to be so exciting.

“You’ll have City with a new manager, Chelsea with a new manager, Man United, Liverpool potentially with a new manager.

“The Premier League next season will be wide open to see who wins that title.”
