The esports range includes the 2025/2026 jacket, alongside a jersey with the option to have custom printings.

The jersey boasts a much lighter colour scheme compared to the 2024/2025 range. Man City esports sponsor E& (Emirates Telecommunications Group Company PJSC) remains at the front of the jersey, sponsoring the organisation’s esports efforts for a fourth consecutive season.

By contrast, the jacket boasts a navy colour scheme and retails for £90/$100, available in sizes S to 3XL. On the other hand, the esports jersey costs £45/$55. However, the addition of custom prints on the jersey will raise its price to £61/$75.50. It is also important to note that custom jerseys will not be eligible for returns. Delivery for the apparel will take anywhere between 1-3 business days.

Football Man City’s Esports Presence 

Created in 2016, Man City’s esports division has continued to grow throughout the years, remaining active across primarily Fortnite and EA FC.

However, the club has collaborated with a number of esports rosters beyond its two primary titles. For example, in 2024 it collaborated with Gen.G Esports for various activations ahead of that year’s League of Legends World Championships. Collaborations date as far back as 2022, when it worked with global esports organisation FaZe Clan to hold a pop-up event at Etihad Stadium.

The esports division has also fostered well-known talent within competitive titles. EA Sports FC player Donovan ‘Tekkz‘ Hunt became a two-time ePremier League champion throughout his two-year tenure before his contract expired with the organisation earlier this year. Earlier this year, Man City launched its very own esports academy programme, offering an esports BTEC qualification.

In the Fortnite scene, Jarvis ‘Kwanti‘ Duong and Aidan ‘Threats‘ Mong won DreamHack San Diego 2023. In 2024, the organisation placed third in the FNCS Major 3 North America Grand Finals.
