We welcome the Villans to the Etihad Stadium on Sunday 24 May at 16:00 (UK), in what’s sure to be a memorable and emotional afternoon.
The fixture will see the Club bid farewell to Pep Guardiola, our greatest-ever manager, after an unforgettable decade at the helm as well as City legends Bernardo Silva and John Stones.

Special send-offs are planned for all three at the Etihad Stadium, before one final farewell opportunity on Monday at both our Parade through the city of Manchester and The After Party at Co-op Live.
But before then, we’re looking to finish the 2025/26 campaign on a high against newly-crowned Europa League winners Aston Villa.
The fixture will also see our players sport next season’s Home Kit – released earlier this week.
Running through a full gradient of sky blue – darker at the shoulders and lightening as it falls – the shirt is finished with a striking metallic monochrome crest and sponsor details.
Part of the ‘Not Your Typical City’ campaign - a playful take on the mentality that has defined this Club’s era of dominance – it represents the hunger City have consistently shown to build on our achievements, rather than settle for them.
The 2026/27 Manchester City Home Kit is available at mancity.com/shop and Manchester City Official Stores, with 10% off for Members and Seasoncard holders
