🎥 Man City celebrate 🔟 years of their successful football academy 🥳
Manchester City are celebrating ten years since they opened their state-of-the-art academy facility at the Joie Stadium, located just next to the Etihad.
The campus was announced in December 2014 as part of an 80-acre training facility to cater for around 400 youth players at a time.
It's home to the Man City Elite Development squad, as well as the increasingly successful women's team and academy teams.
The club have now made a video to celebrate the extensive success of the facility over the last decade.
"A dream fulfilled" ðŸ’

And with the likes of Phil Foden, Cole Palmer, Michael Olise and Romeo Lavia all having spent time at the East Manchester venue, it's obvious why the club are so keen to look back over the last ten years of success.
