Manchester City Football Club, founded in 1880 as St. Mark's, has a rich and storied history. The club underwent several name changes before becoming Manchester City in 1894. City enjoyed early success, winning the FA Cup in 1904 and their first league title in 1937. However, it was in the late 20th and early 21st centuries that the club's fortunes dramatically changed. After decades of fluctuating performance, City was purchased by the Abu Dhabi United Group in 2008, ushering in an era of significant investment. This transformed the club, leading to a period of dominance in English football. Under the management of Roberto Mancini, Manuel Pellegrini, and Pep Guardiola, Manchester City has secured multiple Premier League titles, FA Cups, and EFL Cups. Known for their attacking style and emphasis on possession football, City has become one of the most successful and influential clubs in the world, consistently competing at the highest levels in European football.
