Pep Guardiola still has “everything to prove” as a manager and moving to the Barclays Premier League will be the “biggest test” of his career, Glenn Hoddle has claimed.

Wenger, however, insists he does have full respect for Guardiola and would welcome him to the Premier League.

Guardiola will now spend some time debating over his future while he relaxes with family in the Catalan city.
