'We're not going to stop' - Man City chairman's message is a warning to rivals

Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak is planning for another 15 years of success.

Sheikh Mansour was in attendance to see the Blues crown one of the best seasons English football has ever seen with their first Champions League trophy to complete a Treble. Watching only his second game live in 15 years of controlling them, the City owner witnessed the highest point the team has reached.

With all major trophies won, attention has already turned to what happens next. City bosses are already planning for next season, even if there are some voices outside of the club asking if the Abu Dhabi United Group will still have the motivation to keep investing.

City are just one of the many teams forming the City Football Group, and Al Mubarak made it clear that each and every club under the CFG umbrella will continue to get the attention it needs to grow. Any rivals hoping that City's owners would feel like their mission was accomplished will be disappointed.

“It's always about growth and it's about, you grow, you pause, you get things in order, and then you start the next step. And it's one step at a time, one step at a time," he said.

"We're not going to stop. We're going to keep going and we're going to keep investing and we're going to keep growing value and we're going to keep bringing happiness to every community and every club we have in the world and hopefully we’ll keep bringing success in every club and team we have around the world.

"It's been a great journey over the last 15 years, but I'm excited about the future and it's about now, the next ten, 15 years too.”
