Season summary

Pre-season

The club ended the previous season with the main issue being whether or not Pep Guardiola would decide the extend his contract as manager beyond the end of the 2024–25 season after nine years with the club.[2] Kevin De Bruyne was the only key player who would start the season in the final year of his existing contract, but there was also further speculation on the futures of Kyle Walker, Bernardo Silva and John Stones, as there had been in previous recent summers.

A total of 13 current City players were selected for squads for Euro 2024, the joint most alongside Inter Milan, and one player was selected for the 2024 Copa América. Both competitions would be played during June and July 2024.[3]
