• The Josko Gvardiol Episode

  Josko Gvardiol is this week’s guest the Official Man City Podcast. It’s the Croatia international’s second appearance on the show following his appearance during our preseason tour of the United States of America back in August 2024. Since then, he has made 38 appearances in all competitions for Pep Gaurdiola’s side this term and has scored an impressive five goals. It follows a remarkable maiden season in England for the versatile defender after he helped the Blues to our FIFA Club World Cup triumph and an unprecedented fourth straight English men’s top-flight title. Gvardiol joins presenters Liam Loftus and Paul Dickov at the City Football Academy to discuss a variety of topics including his international career so far, what keeps him humble and the importance of family. What’s more, he details the impact Mateo Kovacic’s advice and presence had on him following his Manchester arrival and much more. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

• The Ian Brightwell Episode

  Former stalwart Ian Brightwell is the latest guest on the Official Man City podcast... Brightwell came through the ranks at City - being part of our first ever FA Youth Cup winning side in 1986. A true team player, he went on to make 380 appearances for City between 1986 and 1998 during a rollercoaster period for the Club. Brightwell was also joined in the City squad for several years by his brother, David! In this episode, Ian speaks to hosts George Kelsey and Paul Dickov - having played alongside Dickov in his final two campaigns at Maine Road. The conversation starts with his childhood and family life as son of two Olympians; Robbie Brightwell, captain of the British Olympic team in 1964, and Ann Packer, gold medal winner in the 800m in Tokyo that year. They move on to his stories of a fascinating period in our history, when Brightwell was a regular in a City side that experienced highs and lows in a rollercoaster 12 years between 1986 and 1998. There's also discussion of perhaps his most famous moment in a City shirt, a sweet left-footed strike against Manchester United at Old Trafford! Learn more about your ad choices.

• The James McAtee Episode

  James McAtee is the latest guest on the Official Man City Podcast! Another of our special homegrown talents, McAtee is enjoying his first season as a regular member of Pep Guardiola's world-class squad. The 22-year-old has already spent more than a decade at the Club, joining our youth ranks from Under-11s onwards. Touted early on as a player that could make an impression at the top of the game, McAtee has worked hard to earn the trust of Pep Guardiola. And in recent weeks and months the Salford-born attacking midfielder has made giant leaps, influencing games and scoring goals whether starting or coming on from the bench. His hat-trick against Salford City earlier this month is already a highlight in what McAtee hopes will be a long time at the Club, while he's also notched his first Champions League and Premier League strikes for City this term. In this chat with George Kelsey and Nedum Onuoha, McAtee details his journey so far and the sporting heritage in his family. He also recounts how two very different campaigns on loan at Sheffield United - the first a Championship promotion and the second a Premier League relegation - have steeled him for the rollercoaster ride of a career in professional football.
