Assistant Coaches Juanma Lillo and Inigo Dominguez will leave Manchester City upon expiry of their contracts the club has announced.

Lillo, who expressed a desire to return home to Spain, enjoyed two hugely successful periods at the Club after originally joining as Pep Guardiola’s assistant coach in 2020. He left City in the summer of 2022 to become Head Coach of Al-Sadd before rejoining as assistant in 2023.

Dominguez also leaves after supporting Guardiola and the players for the last two years, joining at the same time as Lillo’s second spell at the Club.

Carlos Vicens has also departed the Club after agreeing to become the Head Coach of Portuguese side S.C Braga. The Spaniard, who joined the Club in 2017 and helped lead the Under-18s to an FA Youth Cup in 2020, has been part of Guardiola’s backroom staff for four years.

The assistant coaches to succeed Juanma, Inigo and Carlos will be announced in due course.
