Man City players were quick to respond after the club confirmed an official announcement following the agreement of a deal.

It has been a busy summer window at the Etihad, with Pep Guardiola overseeing a significant turnover of players with several departures and new arrivals have already made an impact on the squad.

Key figures such as Kevin De Bruyne, James McAtee and Kyle Walker have left Man City, marking the start of a new era at the club.

Meanwhile, fresh signings have quickly shown their quality as Tijjani Reijnders and Rayan Cherki both scored on their debut against Wolves, while James Trafford started in goal, impressing on his first outing.

Amid all the change in Manchester, the club have confirmed they have secured one player’s future, providing some stability for Guardiola’s evolving squad.

The 28-year-old’s previous deal had two years remaining, but the new contract runs until 2029, with the option for a further 12 months.

Man City began contract talks with Dias back in June, and the Portugal international’s renewal has now been confirmed.

Dias joined Manchester City from Benfica in 2020 for £65million and has enjoyed a successful spell since, helping the club to four league titles, a Champions League triumph, and a historic treble over five seasons.

While retaining one of their key players, the club remain active in the transfer market as Football Insider reports that Rodrygo’s agents have held talks with Man City.

However, the club face competition from rivals Liverpool, who are also in discussions with Rodrygo and aware of the Brazilian’s wage demands ahead of a deal.

With Savinho’s future still uncertain and funds freed up by recent exits, a potential blockbuster signing for City could be on the horizon in the final weeks of the summer window.
