major trophy, the 1908 league championship. Scottish striker Denis Law had several spells with City sandwiching an eleven-year spell with United which saw him become a club legend between 1962 and 1973. In 1974 he scored the winner for City at Old Trafford in a game that condemned United to relegation, Law did not celebrate the goal and walked off the field with his head down when substituted. Brian Kidd began his career with United in 1967 and went on to make 203 appearances before leaving in 1974. Two years later he joined City and made 98 appearances over a three-year stretch. Following retirement, Kidd became assistant manager to Sir Alex Ferguson at United and won four Premier League titles and numerous domestic trophies, in 2009 he became Mark Hughes assistant at City and would remain in the position under the next three managers serving as assistant manager to Roberto Mancini, Manuel Pellegrini before leaving Pep Guardiola's coaching staff at the end of the 2020–21 season, having won numerous titles with City.

Midway through the 1995–96 season United signed City goalkeeper Tony Coton who recently lost his place in the Blues team, he lasted six months at Old Trafford but failed to make a single appearance for the Reds before joining Sunderland in the summer. In recent years, direct transfers between the clubs have been rare as both sides are now Premier League title challengers. Carlos Tevez joined City in 2009 having spent the previous two seasons at United. City then produced billboard posters featuring Tevez and the slogan "Welcome to Manchester". Tevez had been a first-team regular and had won a variety of trophies under Sir Alex Ferguson and later went on to captain to City in their 2011 FA Cup triumph as well as playing a part in helping the Blues win their first Premier League title in 2012. In 2012, United signed defender Frederic Veseli from City
