Jeremy Doku hails Man City’s history-makers as he targets FA Cup glory after past heartbreak

Manchester City winger Jeremy Doku has admitted the sheer scale of the club’s achievement in reaching a record fourth successive FA Cup final is yet to fully sink in. Despite the team’s consistent success , the Belgium international is personally driven to secure the trophy after experiencing defeat in two previous Wembley showpieces. Doku, who joined City in the summer of 2023 following their FA Cup triumph over Manchester United, has since been on the losing side in a Wembley final against United in 2024 and Crystal Palace last year.

He expressed his awe at City's sustained performance, stating: "I think we as a squad don’t realise what we are doing – fourth time in a row, it’s unbelievable. Fair play to everyone in the club. Every year being there after playing against good teams but still reaching the final every time.

It’s something special," he added. City’s pursuit of the FA Cup comes amidst a potential domestic treble, with the final coinciding with the crucial closing stages of the Premier League title race. With five league matches remaining, City currently sit three points behind leaders Arsenal, who have played an additional game.
