From club legends to academy graduates, the documentary delves into the personal stories of former Manchester City stars as they navigate the transition from the pitch to new beginnings.
You’ll hear from Fernandinho as he wrestles with the decision to retire or push on, guided by Pep Guardiola’s advice.

David Brightwell discusses his choice to walk away from football to pursue a completely different path as a fireman.
