FROM THE IGLOO TO THE PITCH: Pudgy Penguins And Manchester City Return For Another Collab!

From the igloo to the pitch! The Pudgy Penguins are trading in their skates for cleats and heading across the pond once again to kick it with Manchester City!

On Tuesday, Pudgy Penguins announced that they are teaming up with the Premier League’s reigning champions on a new soccer themed collaboration with the goal of peng-liferating the brand!

“Following the success of our first drop, we’re proud to continue our collaboration with Manchester City,” Pudgy Penguins tweeted. “Together, we’ll be creating exciting experiences at the intersection of physical and digital and bringing Pengu and Pudgy Penguins to City fans worldwide.”

 

As the Pudgy Penguins shared the announcement with their 700,000 followers on X, Manchester City posted the same video of a soccer playing Pax Pengu to its Instagram, where it had already garnered more than 1.2 million views at the time of this article’s publication.

“Manchester City just posted a Pudgy Penguins collab video to their 56M Instagram followers,” Pudgy Penguin Swiftie tweeted. “For a lot of football fans, this might be their first time seeing Pudgy. That’s how IP spreads. Through culture. Billions will huddle.”

 

Tonight, we do not yet know what Pudgy Penguins and Manchester City are planning for their second drop, but we do know the two previously released a cobranded hoodie and soccer clock back in January 2026 that collectors both inside and outside the huddle were kicking and screaming for!

 

 

The Gazette will continue to follow the Pudgy Penguins x Manchester City collaboration and will let you know what these flightless birds are up to next both on and off the pitch. Stay tuned for updates!
