Manchester City chairman Khaldoon al-Mubarak reveals that owner Sheikh Mansour watches every game from his Middle East home.

Chairman Khaldoon al-Mubarak has revealed that club owner Sheikh Mansour watches every Manchester City game.

The United Arab Emirates-based businessman and politician purchased the Citizens in 2008 and has since invested hundreds of millions of pounds in the Eastlands outfit.

He rarely makes the trip to England to watch City, but Khaldoon has revealed that Mansour watches every game, including yesterday's title-clinching victory over Queens Park Rangers, from his Middle East home.

"He has not missed a single minute of football this club has played this season," said Khaldoon.

"Even if the match is not on TV, he finds a way to watch it. [Sunday] was a rollercoaster for him and the telephone conversation I had with him afterwards was one of the most ecstatic ever."

City's Premier League triumph was their first top-flight title in 44 years.
