- Dias’ Man City deal ends in 2027
- Set for contract extension
- Guardiola’s side gaining momentum
The 28-year-old’s current terms expire in 2027, but الرياضي state an agreement has been reached between Dias and City to sign a new contract. It is not yet known how long the البرتغال international’s new deal will run for, however.
Dias swapped Benfica for City in 2020 for an initial £62 million ($82m) and so far he has proven to be an excellent acquisition, helping them win الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز titles, domestic cups and the دوري أبطال أوروبا. Ergo, this contract news for the centre-back is a big boost for City as they try to become a force in the Premier League and Europe again next season.
Portugal star Dias has made 222 appearances for the Manchester outfit so far, scoring four goals along the way. He was voted the Premier League’s Player of the Season in the 2020-21 campaign.
If Dias extends his City stay, he would follow team-mate إيرلينج هالاند, who penned a nine-and-a-half-year deal in January. Moreover, Guardiola’s side have signed Tijjani Reijnders, Rayan Ait-Nouri, Rayan Cherki, James Trafford, Marcus Bettinelli and Sverre Nypan this summer as they prepare for the new season.
