Man City stars want to party on world's most expensive yacht - it's owned by Sheikh Mansour
Having claimed a historic Treble, Manchester City's heroes are banking on an invite to the superyacht belonging to owner Sheikh Mansour when they visit the Middle East in December
Manchester City stars are desperate to push the boat out on their Treble celebrations... on a £500million superyacht.
Pep Guardiola’s team are still celebrating lifting the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup trophies this season - emulating arch rivals Manchester United in 1999.
And the squad is hoping for an invite to party with their billionaire Abu Dhabi royal owner Sheikh Mansour, 52, who owns the world’s most expensive yacht. It’s even called “Blue” in tribute to his club.
A City insider revealed: “His boat was the talk of the dressing room when he took delivery of it and they hope to get an invite when the team visits Saudi Arabia in December for the Club World Cup.
"Abu Dhabi isn’t too far away and is expected to be moored up when the owner or his family come to watch.”
The 525ft vessel is the world’s fourth largest yacht, with 40 cabins and staterooms. It costs £500,000 just to fill it with fuel and has a crew of 80.

As well as the living quarters, which would be able to host City's squad and some, it boasts a swimming platform, nightclub and two helipads.
And as if that wasn't enough, there's also a beauty salon, sauna, gym, deck jacuzzi as well as wifi and air conditioning and a lift to access the different floors easier.
The Sheikh purchased Blue just last year. It cost him two-and-a-half times as much as buying City did back in 2008, which set him back £200m.
But with a net worth of £17billion thanks to his International Petroleum Investment Company, that sum was a drop in the ocean. He's deputy Prime Minister of his native United Arab Emirates and a member of Abu Dhabi’s ruling family.
