You wouldn\u2019t expect perennial trophy winners to need any advice on how to lift a piece of silverware \u2013 but Prince William felt otherwise during Manchester City\u2019s run to the Treble<\/p>\n

As president of the Football Association, the next-in-line-to-the-throne is often on duty on FA Cup final day to hand out the famous trophy. In June, William did the honours as City completed the second part of the Treble by beating Man United 2-1 at Wembley.<\/p>\n

Having won a vote to be named skipper at the start of the historic season, Ilkay Gundogan was the lucky man to pick up the silverware. As one of the most experienced players in the team, and having lifted the Premier League a few days earlier, the German knew what he was doing.<\/p>\n

But that didn\u2019t stop William from offering some friendly advice as he handed over the cup, as Gundogan recalled during an interview with German tabloid Bild.<\/p>\n

Curiously, he [William] explained to me how I should hold the trophy so that nothing goes wrong,\u201d he laughed.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe FA Cup has a special cover, [and] you may not immediately realise which way it is held. So I was grateful for the help.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gundogan then went on to lift the trophy City had been craving the years \u2013 the Champions League thanks to a narrow 1-0 win over Inter Milan.<\/p>\n

A few days after that final in Istanbul, the 32-year-old made the tough decision to leave City and join Barcelona. In the same interview, Gundogan suggested a delay in being offered a new contract led to his decision to quit the Etihad.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cCity waited a relatively long time until the talks really intensified,\u201d he said. \u201cIf this had happened a little earlier, the situation would have been different.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo in the end it was the perfect ending, it couldn't have come at a better time. It was also my childhood dream to play for Barcelona.\u201d<\/p>\n
