Academy stars Kaden Braithwaite and Ryan McAidoo are the latest guests on the Official Man City Podcast!

Speaking to host Holly Percival and former City star Nedum Onuoha, the talented pair delve deep into their stories at City so far.

Still only 17, local lad Braithwaite is already a graduate of the Academy having made his first team debut for Pep Guardiola’s side last season.

The imposing defender became the third youngest player ever to make his full debut when he started the September 2024 Carabao Cup win over Watford.

He’s since become a key part of our U18 Premier League, FA Youth Cup and UEFA Youth League sides as we challenge for the biggest trophies in youth football.

McAidoo, a skilful winger who joined City in the summer of 2024, is also 17 and has featured most often in the Premier League 2 this term.

Sitting down in our studio, the pair talk extensively about what their academy journeys have taught them and what they hope the future might hold.

It’s a must-watch!
