Man City pre-season 2023: TV coverage, fixtures, dates and UK times
Check out how to watch Man City's pre-season fixtures, including TV details and more.
Manchester City achieved a historic treble in the 2022/23 campaign, but Pep Guardiola will, no doubt, be hungry for even more in the new season.
The Premier League title was regained after a stiff battle with Arsenal under the guidance of Guardiola's former apprentice Mikel Arteta. Ilkay Gundogan's double against Manchester United in the FA Cup final ensured that trophy was bagged before the holy grail, the Champions League, was won to cap off a hugely successful year.
A refresh of Guardiola's star-studded squad is underway as Gundogan opted to join Barcelona upon the expiration of his contract and £30 million was spent to lure Mateo Kovacic from Chelsea to plug the hole. A record fee for a defender is also set to be splashed on Joško Gvardiol from RB Leipzig as City further strengthen their backline for the new campaign.
Like most of the Premier League clubs, City will be on their travels in pre-season as a tour of South Korea and Japan has been booked in.
The English champions kick off their friendly schedule against Japanese outfit Yokohama F. Marinos, who are flying high in the J1 League, before facing Guardiola's former club Bayern Munich and Spanish side Atletico Madrid.

It is back to home soil for their final warm-up game against Arsenal at Wembley in the Community Shield, a trophy City have not lifted since 2019.
Guardiola will be hoping the short and sharp pre-season gets his players in tune for the start of another successful campaign, with a trip to club legend Vincent Kompany's Burnley raising the curtain on the 2023/24 Premier League.
