Manchester City are looking to defend their European crown as the 2023/24 UEFA Champions League knockout stages kickoff in February.
The world’s most-watched club soccer competition brings unrivalled attention, discussion and prestige for clubs who advance through the tournament.
This competition is the final edition of the current format, as next year UEFA will introduce the new “Swiss model”, as part of a controversial revamp.
City will become the first team not named Real Madrid to defend Europe’s premier title since AC Milan in 1990, if they win, as an indication of just how difficult sustained success in this competition is even for global club superpowers.
