Ohana Development has signed an agreement with Manchester City F.C. to launch Manchester City Yas Residences by Ohana, a branded residential community planned along Abu Dhabi’s Yas Canal waterfront. The project is positioned as the world’s first Manchester City–branded residential destination and reflects a shared focus on excellence, innovation and long-term value creation.

Spanning 1.67 million sq m, the development draws on Manchester City’s global brand and legacy, reinterpreted through a contemporary design lens aligned with Ohana Development’s architectural and lifestyle ethos. The partnership also reinforces Abu Dhabi’s positioning as a destination for large-scale, globally recognised developments.

Commenting on the collaboration, Husein Salem, CEO of Ohana Development, said: “Partnering with Manchester City marks a significant milestone for Ohana Development and reflects our long-standing commitment to Abu Dhabi, where we are proudly headquartered. The club’s global stature, forward-looking vision and modern outlook closely align with our ambition to create future-ready communities that contribute to the emirate’s evolving lifestyle landscape. Manchester City Yas Residences by Ohana brings this shared vision to life through a thoughtfully curated residential project, one that is set to become a lasting legacy within the real estate sector.”

Ferran Soriano, Chief Executive Officer of City Football Group, said: “This is a landmark project that brings Manchester City to a premium residential environment in a distinctively club-branded way. Ohana Development is highly regarded for working with leading global brands, translating their influence into high-end, design-driven residential experiences. This partnership will see Ohana harness the Club’s global reach and its unrivalled footprint in the region. We continue to be committed to distinctive collaborations like this.”

Further details on the development are expected to be announced in due course.
