Gallery: Working for the weekend

View the best images from training as City ramped up pre-season preparations.

Gareth Taylor’s side returned to the City Football Academy on Monday 5 August following last term’s second-place finish in the Barclays Women’s Super League.

After matching our best-ever points tally in the competition in 2023/24, we’ve booked our place for the UEFA Women’s Champions League second qualifying round ahead of what’s gearing up to be another exciting term.

Although a number of players were absent having represented their countries at the Paris Olympics, the hard work continued as we approach our tour of Australia later this month.

View the best images from the session via the gallery below!
