Description

A stunning A4 colour photograph personally signed by Roberto Mancini, celebrating one of the greatest days in Manchester City history – the unforgettable Premier League title triumph against Queens Park Rangers on 13th May 2012.

What makes this piece particularly special is its provenance. The photograph was signed in person by Roberto Mancini at Manchester City’s Carrington training ground on 22nd October 2012, just months after he had guided City to their first top-flight league title in 44 years.

Mancini will forever hold a special place in the hearts of the City faithful. The charismatic Italian arrived with huge expectations and delivered the success supporters had waited generations to experience. After ending the club’s long wait for a major trophy by winning the FA Cup in 2011, he went one better the following season and delivered the Premier League title.

And what a way to win it.

That extraordinary afternoon against QPR produced Sergio Agüero’s legendary 93:20 goal, securing the championship in the most dramatic circumstances imaginable and creating a moment that will forever be part of Manchester City and Premier League history.

For Blues, Mancini will also always be remembered as the man who helped bring down that infamous banner at Old Trafford, ending City’s 44-year wait for the league championship and establishing the club as a genuine force at the very top of English football.

Personally signed by the manager who made that history possible, this photograph is a wonderful keepsake from a period that changed Manchester City forever.

It is supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity and provenance, giving you confidence in the history of the signature.

A superb piece to have professionally framed and displayed in a Manchester City room, office or man cave, and an excellent addition to any serious City memorabilia or football autograph collection.

Roberto Mancini – the man who brought the title back to Manchester City after 44 years.
