Training: Building towards Bournemouth

View the best images from training as City added the finishing touches to our Bournemouth preparations.

Pep Guardiola’s side travel to the south coast on Tuesday 19 May, with kick-off scheduled for 19:30 (UK).

The clash with the Cherries represents our penultimate Premier League assignment in 2025/26 and it comes three days after our FA Cup triumph.

Antoine Semenyo’s goal at Wembley was enough to beat Chelsea 1-0 in the competition’s showpiece.

But City’s focus returns to league action this week as we aim to keep our title hopes alive.

In anticipation of our tough trip to Bournemouth, who harbour ambitions of qualifying for Europe this term, Guardiola, his staff and players’ meticulous work continued on Monday.
