A lifelong Manchester City fan, Nico O'Reilly grew up in Manchester just miles from the Etihad and joined the City academy at age nine as an attacking midfielder. Repurposed as an unorthodox, goalscoring left-back, he seized a regular first-team role under Pep Guardiola, scoring a brace in the 2026 EFL Cup final win over Arsenal and winning the Premier League Young Player of the Season. His breakout 2025/26 campaign earned him an England call-up and a likely starting berth at his first World Cup.
- Converted from attacking midfielder to left-back at Manchester City
- Scored twice in the 2026 EFL Cup final against Arsenal
- Named Premier League Young Player of the Season for 2025/26
