Man City seek out Pep Guardiola for contract decision as ideal timeline setPep Guardiola's Manchester City future continues to remain a major talking point with the Catalan linked with a summer exit despite having a contract until 2027View 2 Images Pep Guardiola continues to be linked with a Man City exit (Image: Getty Images)Manchester City have formally sought out Pep Guardiola to see whether he plans to see out his contract - or leave once this current season ends. Guardiola has just claimed another trophy in the form of the Carabao Cup, which saw City down title rivals Arsenal at Wembley. ‌City had hoped that Guardiola would confirm, at least privately, whether or not he was staying during this international break. Guardiola has always been allowed the right to make up his own mind about his future and the club maintain they have contingency plans in place should Guardiola leave a year before his contract expires. Guardiola and City recently downed the Gunners and will face them later this month, which could see them cut the gap at the top.

Many view it as a consequence of Mr Trump finding himself trapped in a war of choice that can’t be won without mass loss of life and ruinous cost. They fear there are now two realities: one controlled by Mr Trump and his unquestioning acolytes, the other, that which is lived and experienced by the rest of the world. Mr Trump insists he was approached by the new leaders of Iran who are desperate for a ceasefire. He posted on social media: “Iran’s New Regime President, much less Radicalized and far more intelligent than his predecessors, has just asked the United States of America for a CEASEFIRE! A pathway for a return to international law and international order must be foundThe constant babble scarcely lends itself to serious analysis.

The new Digital Identity Wallet will be available by the end of the year, and private companies like social media sites could use it by the end of 2027. According to a government spokesman, Ireland has a “legal obligation to provide a European Digital Identity wallet for accessing public services by the end of 2026 and private services by the end of 2027.”By the end of next year, banks, and credit institutions will have to accept the digital wallet as a way for citizens to verify their identity. The Tánaiste Simon Harris previously said that this digital wallet was the next step for social media age verification as he called for a ban on those under 16 using the apps. While the government has not made a decision on whether an age limit to access social media should be introduced, the digital wallet will be piloted for age verification purposes on social media apps. The first phase of the Digital Wallet’s development is beginning this month as public consultation will take place on what the digital wallet is and how it will work.
