Real Madrid CF v FC Bayern München - UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Quarter-Final First Leg

Following a heated row, former Real Madrid defender Álvaro Arbeloa has forced a current club star to apologise to his teammates. The incident, which erupted during a closed-door tr

Arbeloa insisted that the apology be made publicly. In football, as in life, timing is everything. The former Real Madrid and Spain full-back had been silent for several days after the controversial incident, but he chose to break his silence in the most high-profile way possible: by demanding that the apology come not in a private message or a backroom handshake, but in full view of the fans, the media and the wider game. His stance underlines a broader truth about modern sport. Players are not just athletes; they are public figures whose every word and gesture is scrutinised, shared and often weaponised across social media. An apology that is buried in a press release or delivered in whispers will be ignored or, worse, seen as insincere. For an apology to carry weight, it must be as visible as the mistake that prompted it. Arbeloa’s insistence on public accountability reflects a growing expectation among supporters and commentators alike that their heroes—and the organisations that e

Barcelona line up new goalkeeper target but face Ter Stegen puzzle

Barcelona are facing a complex goalkeeping dilemma ahead of the 2026-27 season. While Joan Garcia is the only long-term certainty, sporting director Deco is exploring new targets like Alex Remiro. However, the club must first solve the complicated future of veteran Marc-Andre ter Stegen, whilst also deciding whether to activate a break clause for Wojciech Szczesny this June.

Girona head coach Michel Sanchez has sensationally thrown his hat into the ring to succeed Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, declaring that he is ready for the top job at the Etihad Stadium. While Guardiola's long-term future remains a subject of intense speculation, the man leading Manchester City's sister club in Spain has made no secret of his ambitions to step up to the Premier League.

Laporta fumes as CTA admit Barca error

The race for the Spanish league title has been rocked by an official admission of a high-profile officiating blunder. Barcelona president Joan Laporta has spoken out after the Spanish Referees' Committee (CTA) acknowledged that Girona’s winning goal in their recent 2-1 victory over the Blaugrana should have been disallowed for a foul on Jules Kounde. Despite the rare moment of transparency from the governing body, Laporta remains frustrated that the technical validation does nothing to alter the league standings or the damage done at Montilivi.

Barcelona issue hilarious response as referees admit VAR mistake

The race for the Spanish league title has taken another dramatic turn off the pitch as the Spanish Referees' Committee (CTA) officially admitted that a crucial goal against Barcelona should never have stood. During Barca's shock 2-1 defeat to Girona at Montilivi on February 16, Fran Beltran netted an 86th-minute winner that left the Catalan giants fuming. The club's hierarchy and fans alike were adamant that Jules Kounde had been fouled in the build-up, and those suspicions have now been validated by the governing bodies in spectacular fashion.

Frequently asked questions

You must be a club member to purchase an official ticket through the club to see Manchester City play at the Etihad Stadium.

There are two types of Cityzens memberships  – Matchday Membership, for adults (ages 18 and above) between £25 and £35, and Junior Membership, for youth supporters (ages 17 and below) at £20.

Memberships offer fans a range of benefits, from priority access to tickets to a discount in the club shop.

Adult

  • Full Price: £35
  • Base Membership: £25

Junior

  • Full Price: £20

To buy a Manchester City season ticket, you must first be a Cityzens Matchday or Junior Member, as season tickets are not sold to the general public. However, season tickets for the 2025/26 season are currently sold out, and only a limited number of Flexi Season Tickets were offered to eligible members based on their match attendance history and purchase activity. 

Renewals for existing ticket holders have closed, and new tickets will not be widely available until at least the 2026/27 season, when the Etihad Stadium expansion is expected to release more seats.

To prepare for future availability, you should purchase a Cityzens Matchday Membership through the official Manchester City website and attend as many home games as possible. Priority for season tickets is based on loyalty and attendance, so building your history now increases your chances. 

Flexi Season Tickets, which offer a more flexible commitment while still providing benefits, are another route, but also subject to eligibility.

Due to high demand, getting your hands on Premier League tickets for Manchester City matches is not easy, though it is typically not as tough as it is for their rivals.

Unsurprisingly, that can lead many fans to head to secondary resale sites such as StubHub in their efforts to bag tickets, though even then, it is not a foregone conclusion.

The best way to get tickets for Manchester City matches is to ensure you have a membership and browse the individual match options available. Remember, games against lower Premier League opposition or non-rivals will likely be easier to find.

The best way to buy cheap Manchester City tickets is from the club's official website, looking for tickets in the more cost-friendly portions of the Etihad Stadium.

Second-hand resale sites such as StubHub and Ticombo may also offer cheap tickets at short notice, with prices likely at their lowest the closer you get to the game.

You can indeed book a tour around the Etihad Stadium. Several websites offer deals and discounts on tours around the Citizens' home.

RedLetterDays currently offer stadium tours from £28 for one adult through £72 for two adults and two children. The time lasts approximately 90 minutes and includes an interactive portion that allows guests to greet a virtual Pep Guardiola in the press room and access the club shop.
