Sports documentaries are currently in trend, especially in soccer. Be it Amazon Prime Video’s riveting ‘All or Nothing’ or FX’s captivating ‘Welcome to Wrexham,’ wide-ranging shows are being made for fans to see the never-before-seen part of the game. Now, the spotlight turns to Manchester City, as Netflix has secured the Cityzens’ glorious journey to a treble victory for a whopping seven-figure fee. 

A few years ago, Pep Guardiola and Co. shot their exclusive All or Nothing. Now, the Premier League giants have reportedly struck a deal with Amazon Prime’s arch-rivals. As per writer Simon Bajkowski, the document is named ‘Together: Treble Winners’ and it will be available to stream on April 2 across the world. Likewise, journalists Jack Gaughan and Mike Keegan report it will be a six-part documentary series and will feature behind-the-scenes footage of the Cityzens’ 2022–23 treble-winning campaign. Interestingly, it’s been reported that Netflix is set to shell out a seven-figure amount to secure the rights to Pep Guardiola and his team’s story. That’s not all!
