About Khaldoon Al mubarak

CEO · Mubadala

In a two-part interview released in June 2026, Khaldoon Al Mubarak discussed the departure of manager Pep Guardiola, whom he described as a friend and said had "changed English football." Al Mubarak stated that the club had gone through a "thoughtful and structured" process to select a new manager and would announce the appointment soon. He characterized the season as both a successful one and a transition, noting the club finished second in the Premier League and won two domestic cups. Al Mubarak praised striker Erling Haaland, calling him "the best striker in the world" and a future Ballon d'Or winner, and credited director Hugo Viana for the January signings of Omar Marmoush and Abdukodir Khusanov. Al Mubarak also addressed the club's financial outlook and the ongoing Premier League legal case. He described infrastructure spending as "investment" rather than cost, stating that Sheikh Mansour views the club as a long-term investment with "no intention to sell." Al Mubarak said the club's value had grown from $5 billion to north of $8 billion and estimated a minimum market value of $10 billion. On the Premier League ruling, he said he could not comment until a decision is reached, adding that he would "say everything I wanted to say for the last three years" once the ruling is announced. He also highlighted the women's team's Super League title win, calling the new training facility "the best in the country" and a testament to the club's commitment.
