MANCHESTER, England, May 19 (Reuters) - Pep Guardiola is ⁠expected to take charge of Manchester City for the final time on Sunday, drawing the curtain down on a decade that has ⁠reshaped not only his club but English football itself.

When the Catalan arrived in 2016, he was already regarded as one of ‌the game's great innovators. What followed was something even more profound: a transformational reign that turned City from wealthy contenders into the defining team of an era.

Ten years on, Guardiola leaves City having won 15 major trophies, not including the UEFA Super Cup and Club World Cup.

His trophy cabinet includes six Premier League titles -- including a record four in a row -- ​and the club's first Champions League crown, a haul that places him among the most ⁠successful managers in English football history.

This season alone, he has ⁠guided City to both the League Cup and FA Cup titles, and pushed Arsenal right to the wire in the Premier League race.

His final ⁠match, ‌expected to be Sunday's league game against Aston Villa, will close the book on a story of dominance, reinvention and influence that extended far beyond results.
