Pep Guardiola has no offers from other clubs and has not made any decision on his future beyond the end of the season, the Bayern Munich boss has insisted.
Guardiola, 44, has entered the final year of the contract he signed in 2013, and there was fresh speculation at the weekend that he has already agreed terms with Manchester City for the 2016-17 season.
However, speaking ahead of Saturday's German Supercup clash with Wolfsburg, the former Barcelona coach said he has not made any decision about his next move.
"This will be the last time I talk about it," Guardiola told a news conference on Friday. "I have not yet decided what is best for this club -- and I want to do the best for this club. I have not made a decision yet.
"When I have made a decision, I will inform [former president] Uli Hoeness, [CEO] Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and [sporting executive] Matthias Sammer. That's the situation."
Former Bayern captain Stefan Effenberg said in German tabloid Bild on Friday that Guardiola was set to leave, and Qatar-based network beIN Sports has twice reported that he is set to join City.
However, Guardiola dismissed both claims.
"Maybe Effenberg knows more than me," he said, adding: "I have not received an offer from any other club in this world."
There had been suggestions last season that Guardiola's time should be brought to an early end after the club suffered a heavy defeat in the Champions League semifinals for a second year in succession.
There have also been concerns about his influence on transfers given the uncertainty over his future.
However, the coach said: "Listen, I will never become a problem for FC Bayern Munich. When I have the feeling that I become painful for the club, another coach will come in. I will never become a problem for FC Bayern."
He added: "At Bayern, the players are signed by the club, and the coach trains the players, who have been signed by the club. That is the truth. It has been like this for over 30 years, and so it also has been the case in the past two years."
Guardiola has won back-to-back league titles, winning the domestic double in his first season, but he said: "I have learnt that reaching the semifinals in Champions League is not enough here."
Bayern have said on several occasions that they plan enter talks with Guardiola later this year to clarify his position.
"Maybe the club is not happy about it [the delayed decision]," Guardiola said. "They want to know about my plans as soon as possible. I don't want to become a problem for this club."
