On this day 10 years ago, we launched Manchester City Esports as a competitive esports organisation.

Since then, the Club has competed in three game titles, had 20 pros represent City, travelled the world and we have connected with over 1.5 million fans on social media.

It’s hard to summarise the past decade of accolades, signings and memorable moments but here, to mark the occasion, we take a look at some of our standout moments…

PRO PLAYERS

As mentioned, over the past 10 years, City have had 20 players represent the Club across three esports, EA SPORTS FC, Fortnite and Rocket League.

And those pros have come from around the globe from Denmark to the United States to Argentina.

From our first pro player Kieran ‘KezBrown’ Brown to our first ePremier League title winner Shaun ‘Shellzz’ Springette to Joshua ‘Cold’ Butler and Enzo ‘Seikoo’ Grondein, City have had some of the most exciting young talents in their video games play for City.

You can see all of our pros, past and present, in the carousel below…

KITS

For the past five campaigns, the Club has been proud to provide a unique kit specifically for the esports team and our fans.

Whether it has been a standout orange to reflect the eye-catching performances of our pros, to a slightly altered version of our beloved sash in our 2025/26 kit, all our pros have worn the shirt with immense pride.

And we look forward to showcasing our 2026/27 kit with you soon!

ACCOLADES

Like any club, silverware is always the pinnacle of any campaign.

Since our inception, we have strived to succeed on the biggest of stages. And we have done just that.

In EA SPORTS FC, City are the most successful club in ePremier League history with four titles since the competition’s inception in 2019.

We’ve also seen our pros compete in World Cups and the eChampions League in what are the biggest stages in the sport.

In Fortnite, Joshua ‘Cold’ Butler won FNCS Major 1 2024 to see us lift our first major trophy in the game title.

And in Rocket League, in less than a year of us competing in the esport, we have already featured in one Major as we look to continue to build on that success throughout the year.

HISTORY MAKERS

In the FC scene, City have continued to rewrite history.

In 2024, we became the first club to win the ePremier League twice as Matias Bonanno and Donovan ‘Tekkz’ Hunt lifted the prestigious trophy.

A year later, we made history again by becoming the first organisation to retain the ePremier League title.

Then, in 2026, City were crowned ePremier League champions for a third successive season, a feat no one has ever done.

And we are extremely excited for the years to come as we, Man City Esports, look to fight to make more memories and push to be the best football team esports organisation in the world.
