First Team Manager Pep Guardiola said: “To win the Premier League title is such a tough thing to achieve and a matter of huge pride for us all at the club.
“The manner of their victory showed how talented our young players are and also proved that they play with courage and personality too. We see how strong the Academy is every single day, and the quality is there every single time the young players train with us.”
Academy Director Thomas Krücken added: “Congratulations to our coaches Ben Wilkinson and Craig Mudd, Head of Coaching Jan-Moritz Lichte, the players, the MDT and Academy Staff to this incredible achievement! What a great season!”
City also came close to winning U18 silverware this season, but were thwarted by Aston Villa U18s, led by Head Coach Jimmy Shan, on both occasions.
In the FA Youth Cup final two weeks ago, Shan’s Villa beat Oliver Reiss’s City 3-1 at Villa Park.
