Bayern Munich coach and Barcelona legend Pep Guardiola is to make a symbolic stand for election to the Catalan parliament in a campaign for his native region to be independent from Spain.

Spanish newspaper El Pais said Guardiola would stand as the last candidate on the electoral list for the pro-independence alliance planning to run in the election in September.

The 44-year-old has several times publicly displayed his support for the drive to make Catalonia break away from Spain. He flew over from Munich last November to vote in a symbolic non-biding ballot on the issue held by regional leaders.
