Sheikh Mansour is committed to strengthening Manchester City after their treble-winning achievements this season.
City owner Sheikh Mansour was in attendance for the Champions League final win over Inter Milan at the weekend - only his second-ever City game - to see his club become champions of Europe for the first time. In achieving the treble, City have managed what only Manchester United have done in England before by winning the league, FA Cup and European Cup in the same season.
In the days since the final in Istanbul, Pep Guardiola was in Manchester on Monday to enjoy the club's treble parade through a rain-soaked city centre, and has since flown to Abu Dhabi for an audience with Sheikh Mansour - along with the three trophies.
Along with chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak, CEO Ferran Soriano and Sporting Director Txiki Begiristain, Sheikh Mansour discussed City's successes in 2022/23, their plans for next season, and how to 'strengthen' City's position on a global scale.

A tweet from Sheikh Mansour's official Twitter account read: "Mansour bin Zayed receives Manchester City management and technical director Pep Guardiola and assures them that the team's achievements embody the club's strategy.
"His Highness reviews with them the club's march, future plans and strategies in the sports and investment fields, and plans for the next season 2023/2024 to ensure strengthening the club's position locally, Europeanly and globally."
Abu Dhabi outlet Wam also reported that City's treble "opens wide horizons for winning more championships, and constitute an incentive to continue the distinguished sports career at a confident pace towards more achievements."
Guardiola is reported as saying that City's titles represent a 'response to the favour' of Sheikh Mansour, insisting that he will continue to insist that City win cups and championships.
