Man City stars show off new FaZe Clan merch collab
Instagram: Man City / Twitter: FaZe ClanPremier League football club Manchester City have teamed up with FaZe Clan once again for another collaboration, and some of the teams top players have shown off the new gear.
FaZe Clan’s rise from a Call of Duty sniping clan on YouTube to one of the most recognizable brands in esports, and gaming has secured them a number of opportunities outside of the endemic gaming space.
Man City, on the other hand, have been trying to move more into the esports & gaming area themselves, backing a FIFA esports team and previous collaborations with FaZe.
Some of their biggest stars are also big gamers – Sergio Aguero is one of the most popular streamers on Twitch, in addition to being the club’s all-time leading goalscorer.
The two teams first announced their surprise partnership in September 2019. At the time, Man City said “Esports is the world’s fastest growing spectator sport and this collaboration with FaZe Clan marks the start of an exciting new chapter in Manchester City’s esports journey.”

Last time out, Man City actually wore training tops with FaZe logos for a Premier League game. Whether that happens again for their derby match against United remains to be seen.
Their partnership with FaZe Clan was extended for a year back in June, so fans of either organization can expect more collaborations in the future.
