Manchester City Owner Sheikh Mansour Named as New UAE Vice-President

News 18  

Manchester City’s owner Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan was named as vice-president of the United Arab Emirates in a shake-up of the oil-rich Gulf monarchy’s top ranks on Wednesday. The 52-year-old joins Dubai’s ruler and UAE prime minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum as vice-president, nearly a year after his brother Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed was named as president. The president also named his son Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed as crown prince of Abu Dhabi, the richest of the UAE’s seven emirates — a post that has traditionally signified the next in line to the presidency. Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed, often known as “MBZ” and the UAE’s long-time de facto ruler, was named as president last May after his half-brother Sheikh Khalifa died after ill health sidelined him for years.
