Manchester City is the dominant force in English and European football, reigning from the Etihad Stadium in Manchester. Competing in the Premier League, the club was founded in 1880 and plays in sky blue and white. Owned by the City Football Group and managed by the peerless Pep Guardiola, City's story is one of remarkable transformation. Historically in the shadow of rivals Manchester United, the club's fortunes changed with investment from Abu Dhabi's Sheikh Mansour in 2008. This led to a first Premier League title in 2012, secured via Sergio Agüero's iconic last-minute goal. Under Guardiola, City has achieved a level of domestic supremacy rarely seen, winning multiple league titles, including a historic domestic treble in 2019. The ultimate crowning glory was winning the UEFA Champions League in 2023, completing the treble. With a squad boasting stars like Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne, they play a mesmerizing, possession-based style. The club's global influence and commercial reach are now immense, marking them as the benchmark in world football.
