Guardiola's first season in 2016-17 ended without silverware, with City finishing third in the Premier League and exiting the Champions League in the last 16 against Monaco.
Ahead of the 2017-18 season, major squad overhauls led to a record-breaking 100-point Premier League title.
City finished 19 points ahead of Manchester United and also won the League Cup against Arsenal.
In 2018-19, the club secured a domestic treble by winning the Premier League with 98 points after a tight race with Liverpool, along with the League Cup and FA Cup.
After losing the league to Liverpool in the pandemic-disrupted 2019-20 season, City rebounded in 2020-21 to win the league by 12 points and reach their first Champions League final, which they lost to Chelsea.
