Pep Guardiola and Manchester City have discovered their path to a potential UEFA Champions League Final at Wembley Stadium, following the completion of both the quarter-final and semi-final draws.

The treble-winners remain in the hunt to retain last season’s historic feat, as Manchester City continue to compete to win the Premier League, UEFA Champions League and Emirates FA Cup.

Pep Guardiola’s side are currently just one point behind Liverpool and Arsenal in the Premier League title race, and have also reached the last-eight of both the Champions League and FA Cup.

City progressed to the quarter-finals of the Champions League with a 6-2 aggregate win over FC Copenhagen in the last-16, winning 1-3 at the Parken Stadium in Denmark and 3-1 at the Etihad Stadium last week.

Manuel Akanji, Julian Alvarez and Erling Haaland were all on the scoresheet during the second-leg victory, as Manchester City extended their unbeaten streak in Europe to 22 matches.

The 2024 Champions League Final is scheduled to be staged on Saturday 1st June at London’s Wembley Stadium, a ground Guardiola has managed Manchester City on 18 previous occasions at.

City have played 39 matches at Wembley in their history, and 26 times since 2011.

Manchester City’s path to a third Champions League Final in four years was revealed on Friday, as UEFA completed both the quarter-final and semi-final draws.

The Sky Blues will face Real Madrid in the quarter-finals, and should Guardiola’s team progress to the semi-finals then they would play either Arsenal or Bayern Munich.

Should Manchester City reach June’s Final then they would be the away team, and could face Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain, Atletico Madrid, or Borussia Dortmund at Wembley.
