Manchester City look to defend their European crown as the 2023/24 UEFA Champions League gets set to begin group-stage play.
The world’s most-watched club soccer competition brings unrivalled attention, discussion and prestige for clubs that advance through the tournament.
This competition will be the final edition of the current format, as next year UEFA will introduce the “Swiss model”. Thus, this will be the final 32-team group stage unless the European confederation revives it down the road.
City look to become the first team not named Real Madrid to defend Europe’s premier title since AC Milan in 1990, indicating just how difficult sustained success in this competition is even for global club superpowers.
