Manchester City defeated West Ham 3-1 on Sunday to claim the Premier League title for the third time in a row, breaking a 136-year record in English top-flight soccer.
The report- breaking subject went down the the season’s last day, with Man City needing a victory to hit out runner- up Arsenal, a 2- 1 winner over Everton. Arsenal did have won the prize had Man City lost or drawn.
Alternatively, City celebrated its fifth EPL name in seven months.
No American team has always won four division titles in a string, and it comes on the heels of next month’s Man City treble—in which the club won the EPL time championship, English soccer’s FA Cup tournament and Europe’s Champions League. Man City’s revenue for the year was$ 891 million, up more than 16 % over the previous year, and set an EPL record.

Under the direction of renowned Catalan manager Pep Guardiola, Sheikh Mansour al Zayed al Nahyan’s club has grown to 16 titles and is now a giant. Sheikh Mansour’s economic resources as a member of Abu Dhabi’s decision home, and the team’s opportunity to spend money on leading- flight players, has made City a force in international soccer.
However, the club with the sky- blue jerseys has a cloud hanging over it. Some of the allegations date back to 2009, and the EPL charged Man City with breaking the league’s Financial Fair Play ( FFP ) and Profit and Sustainability Rules ( PSR ) in February of 2023. Since then, the case has moved glacially, and in secrecy, with Manchester City vehemently denying any wrongdoing. The case could potentially result in fines, suspension and even relegation.
In 2018, City was found guilty of breaking UEFA’s Financial Fair Play ( FFP ) regulations and banned from the Champions League for two years. The club appealed the decision, taking it to the Court of Arbitration for Sport ( CAS ), and had it overturned.
Everton and Nottingham Forest, both teams that were in the top flight this season, were both penalized for breaking EPL financial regulations this year, with points being taken that could have put them in danger of relegation.
Sheikh Mansour bought City in 2008 for$ 388.5 million, Sportico now values Manchester City at$ 4.75 billion, making it the sixth- most valuable club among the top 50 most valuable soccer franchises in the world.
