Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola plans to leave the English champions at the end of next season.
The 50-year-old Spanish made the revelation on Wednesday stating that he desired to take a break and probably resume coaching by managing a national team.
"After seven years in this team, I think I'll take a break," said 50-year-old Guardiola.
"I'll need to see what we've done and assess motivations for the future.
"And in this process I'd like to coach a national team: South American, European ... I want to have the experience of a Copa America."
However, Guardiola is not banking on that national team being Brazil.
"A national team will be the next step, yes," said Guardiola told ESPN Brasil.
"I think the Brazil coach will always be a Brazilian, I can't see a foreigner coaching a team like Brazil."
The former Barcelona midfielder has won three Premier League in his five seasons in charge of City and last term took them to the Champions League final, where they lost 1-0 to Chelsea.
Guardiola had previously won the Uefa Champions League twice with Barcelona and also lifted La Liga three times with the Catalans and as many Bundesliga crowns with Bayern Munich.
In his playing days, he also won the old European Cup, Cup Winners' Cup and six La Liga titles with Barca.
