Man City stars transformed into racing drivers

Four Manchester City players have experienced the Dream Job Swap, becoming racing drivers for a day.

David Silva, Bacary Sagna, Fernando and Eliaquim Mangala took part in Nissan’s Dream Job Swap.

They were tutored by some of Nissan’s best GT Academy drivers, including Jann Mardenborough who was signed to Cardiff City FC’s junior squad as a teenager.

The job swap concept was inspired by a Nissan-commissioned study that found that nearly a third of nine to 13-year olds believe that footballers and racing drivers have the most exciting careers in the world.
