Manchester City have sold the marvelous story of their illustrious treble season to streaming giants Netflix for megabucks as Pep Guardiola's side attempt to reprise the feats in the coming months.

Based on reports, Netflix apparently parted with a seven-figure fee to show behind-the-scenes access of the 2023/24 season in a six-part documentary series.

The streaming giants will air the Cityzens journey to all three top trophies, which they won last season; from the Premier League to the FA Cup and UEFA Champions League played in Istanbul.

It will be released early in April with a trailer expected to be out this week, as Manchester City chases more laurels this term.

Pep Guardiola has his sights on etching more history, as they strive to qualify for the quarter-final of the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday, March 6, 2024.

The Cityzens lead 3-1 after the first leg in Denmark, and the clash against Copenhagen at the Etihad hoping to continue their domineering run in the tournament.

Guardiola has guided the Manchester-based club into the quarter-finals of the FA Cup, and they sit one point adrift of league leaders Liverpool on the Premier League table.

Manchester City face a confident but depleted Liverpool side on Sunday, March 10, 2024, in what is expected to be an enthralling clash involving the two rivals.

The Cityzens will become the first Premier League team to feature on Netflix, with the streaming giants having previously enjoyed massive success in Formula 1, basketball, tennis, and golf.

Popular streaming giants and rival to Netflix, Amazon had done the “All or Nothing documentary” with Arsenal and it was indeed a massive hit.

Netflix has previously done a documentary with Championship club Sunderland, titled “Sunderland, Til I Die” and it was also a hit.

The streaming giants had exclusive access to their shocking slump from grace and they covered it superbly.

However, the streaming giant’s football offerings have largely been panned on individuals - including David Beckham, Nicolas Anelka, and Luis Figo.

In 2017-2018 season, Amazon Prime did a documentary on Manchester City, capturing the club's 100th year in existence.

Additionally, the broadcast unit of the defending champions of the Premier League have also recently put out two famous docuseries on their in-house channels in 2021 and 2022.

Manchester City's camera crew are now fully part of the first team's inner circle, tagging alongside the top stars for the entirety of the Treble season.

They were once approached by Netflix, and have worked alongside the production staff for months in an editing process that has taken a lengthy period.


Manchester City supporters will certainly be like Oliver Twist in the coming months, who wanted more in the popular novel written by the late English author Charles Dickens.
