It’s been a busy year for Manchester City. As well as adding a 6th title in 10 seasons, signing Erling Haaland, and trying to extend Pep Guardiola’s contract, their parent company, the City Football Group, have been busy behind the scenes, closing a deal to bring Palermo into their family of football clubs, bringing their total number of teams to 11.

On today’s Explained, we look into this system, its similarities to rival football business Red Bull, and how it has helped City build a world-class side – as well as some of the deeper motivations behind Sheikh Mansour’s investments.

  1. Middle Eastern tyrant oligarch gangsters love spreading their money around as a PR exercise. In this context it's called "Sports Washing" but it can work with any cultural brand that the masses are fond of and will therefore turn a blind eye to their State Atrocities and Human Rights abuses. It's similar to Goebbels propaganda philosophy; that the Advertising industry utilised from the late 1950s to the present day and counting. Sorry to spoil all our love of football as FD Fans and viewers!

  2. Chelsea have a large loan system
    Affect: thousands of kids given a chance to train and become a professional footballer
    Everyone: boooo boooo booo evil Chelsea. Loan system is bad for football

    Man City buying up club after club
    Affect: bias towards a particular company who own multiple clubs
    Everyone: 👍 seems legit…………..

  3. LFC vs MC fac semi final 2022…appx 5k MC fans & 75k LFC fans. Trophy parades of 2022. RMadrid, Milan & LFC appx 500k+ crowds. MC parade appx 40k fans. Conclusion? Quiet literally, no one in the sporting world or on the street gives a flying fig how many trophies or football clubs Abu Dhabi buys.

  4. What a stupid video filled with wrong information… And also you can't say to it's for polishing the picture of the nation you can say it's for polishing the picture of the government of the UAE… I know that you guys hate everything about the middle east but come on

  5. Even if they bought clubs in all 221 FIFA member countries and supplies them with billions of players still won’t be enough to topple a football royalty like Real Madrid.
