Premier League: Guardiola sets new record

By beating Sheffield on Sunday, Pep Guardiola became the fastest manager to reach 200 Premier League victories.

Arrived in 2016 at Manchester City, Pep Guardiola has already greatly marked the history of the club and English football with his mark. The Spanish technician has won 15 trophies since his arrival, including five championships and above all a Champions League long awaited by the Cityzens since the takeover by an Emirati investment fund in 2008.

200th for Guardiola

This Sunday, the former Barcelonan set himself a new record in the English league. As his team won by the wire at Sheffield, Guardiola became the fastest manager to reach 200 Premier League victories. It only took him 269 matches to reach this milestone, which allows him to erase by far the previous record held by Sir Alex Ferguson (322 matches), closely followed by José Mourinho (326).
