Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola says that he is still to decide whether or not to renew his contract with the European champions when it expires at the end of the season. \"I don\'t know yet,\" he said during a press conference ahead of Barça\'s league game at home to Valencia tomorrow. \"If the club needs a response straight away, I\'d have to decide because the club is the most important thing. But they haven\'t given me a deadline for the time being.\" At the Barça helm since 2008, Guardiola signed a one-year contract extension in February 2011 that extended his commitment to the club until the end of the current campaign. Asked why it was taking him so long to decide, Guardiola replied: \"I have to feel it. It\'s as simple as that.\" Despite having fallen ten points behind Real Madrid in La Liga, the Catalan giants remain on course to defend their UEFA Champions League title and will face Athletic Bilbao in the final of the Copa del Rey at the end of May. Guardiola has led Barça to 13 major honours during his time in charge at Camp Nou, including three La Liga titles and two Champions League crowns.
