If you believed that Pep Guardiola to Manchester City was the worst-kept secret that football currently has to offer, we have news for you.

More specifically, Don Balon, a Spanish outlet, have news for you.

They reckon that Pep is destined for Manchester’s other club, and has even identified his first signing when he arrives at Old Trafford.

Pep is being tipped to raid Barcelona for one of their goalkeeper’s Claudio Bravo. Stating that David De Gea is expected to move to Real Madrid, the report claims Bravo could be the perfect solution to United’s goalkeeping problem.

31-year-old Bravo has not been too impressed at having to fight with the number one spot at the Nou Camp with German Marc-Andre ter Stegen, and could join the former Barça boss when he starts his new job.

Is this the confirmation we’re after? Far from it.

Quite frankly, we’re getting exhausted with it all now.
