Manchester City have announced news that shakes the foundations of the club: Txiki Begiristain, sporting director since 2012, will leave his position at the end of next season. This decision marks the end of an era marked by success and transformation of the city team.
Txiki Begiristain arrived at Manchester City in 2012, from Barcelona, with the mission of building an ambitious and winning sports project. Under his direction, the English club has undergone a radical transformation, going from being a mid-table team to becoming a world football power.
Seven Premier Leagues: A historic milestone that consolidates City as one of the most dominant teams in England in recent years.
A Champions League: The long-awaited "Big Ears" arrived in 2023, thus culminating the sporting project initiated by the club.
A Club World Cup, a European Super Cup, two Cups, six League Cups and four English Super Cups: These titles complete an enviable list of achievements that positions Manchester City as one of the most successful clubs in the world.
The departure of Txiki Begiristain leaves an indelible legacy at Manchester City. The Spanish sporting director has been the architect of one of the most successful sporting projects in the history of football. His vision, his ability to sign the best players and his knowledge of football have been fundamental to the team's success.
The departure of Txiki Begiristain represents a turning point in the history of Manchester City. The club will have to face a new cycle, with new challenges and new objectives. The sporting management will have to find a replacement worthy of Begiristain, someone who can maintain the team's high competitive level and continue building a winning project.
Manchester City have already announced that Hugo Viana, currently Sporting Director of Sporting de Portugal, will be Txiki Begiristain's successor. Viana has the difficult task of maintaining the Spaniard's legacy and continuing to lead the club to success.
The departure of Txiki Begiristain from Manchester City is news that raises many questions. How will this decision affect the future of the club? Will Hugo Viana be able to live up to expectations? Only time will tell. What is certain is that Txiki Begiristain has left an indelible mark on the history of Manchester City and that his legacy will endure for many years to come.
