Manchester City legend Shaun Goater would rather see Julian Nageslmann replace Pep Guardiola, rather than Mauricio Pochettino.
There is speculation about the future of Guardiola, as he has not signed an extension to the contract that expires this summer.
Now Spanish reports suggest he could head back to Spain to Barcelona depending on how their presidential election turns out.
The former City striker told Gentingbet: "I really like Nagelsmann, he's a young manager who is brave, offensive in his game and that's Pep's style.
"The brand of football that City play is possession based with creativity, full-backs going forward, full-backs also being inverted and you don't see wide players or wingers, you see both. Working with those front three, that's a brand of football that Pep has created.
"Nagelsmann is a sort of manager that is brave when I've seen his teams and I like that about him.
"He sort of says, 'Right, we're coming to win this game' and he does tactical moves that stretch the opposition and make them think differently, rather than playing a cagey game, so I really like some of the things I've seen his teams do.
"With Pochettino, we've seen how he operated at Tottenham and he was just starting to really build some good things as a good manager but he didn't quite win anything there, but again, played a great brand of football. So, both of them would be exciting managers."
