How big is this year’s Manchester City wage bill? Check out Boardroom’s full rundown of the player salaries and contracts on the books at the Etihad for 2023-24.
It dogged Pep Guardiola ever since he left FC Barcelona for German giants Bayern Munich and followed him to the blue side of Manchester — can he win the Champions League without Messi, Xavi, and Iniesta? That question was answered resoundingly in 2023 when Man City outfoxed Inter Milan to earn its first European crown, capping a historic treble-winning season.

Well, if you know anything about Pep and the outrageously moneyed City Football Group behemoth backing him, this lot will find a way — and one look at Ferran Soriano and Co.’s roster spending this year suggests that not only are the erstwhile Noisy Neighbors poised to make another run for a trophy or two this season, but that from Premier League weekends to mid-week nights on the European continent, they’ll have every chance to be even fiercer on the pitch this time than the last.
