Pep Guardiola’s win makes it a 2023/24 Man City awards double after Phil Foden was named the EA SPORTS Player of the Season.
Tuesday saw Pep Guardiola win Premier League Manager of the Year after leading Manchester City to an unprecedented fourth straight championship.
Since joining the team in 2016, the Spanish coach has previously taken home four wins of the accolade. He is currently tied for the second-most successful coach in English football history with six league titles. Guardiola claims he “will defend” his Manager of the Season title in 2024–2025, but he prefers to split the honour with his colleagues nominees who encouraged Man City to perform at its highest level this season.

He improved his players. Champions League and World Cup-winning players. He taught them to play new positions, showed them another way to win as a collective and they loved him for it. In his second season, he guided the Blues to the Premier League title and the Carabao Cup, smashing records along the way in a stunning season.
He picked up four successive Manager of the Month awards and was voted the Premier League Manager of the Season and the LMA Manager of the Year. He was again voted Premier League manager of the year after guiding City to four more trophies in 2018/19 to become the Club’s most successful boss ever with six trophies in three seasons.
