Manchester City have moved with speed this summer to secure the long-term futures of key first-team players, most recently Abdukodir Khusanov’s five-year deal until 2031.
Confirmation of the Uzbek’s new deal caps off a significant week of activity that has seen the club unveil Elliot Anderson as their marquee summer recruit, as well as revealed Phil Foden’s new contract until summer 2030 – with the option of a further 12 months.
Recent reports also suggest Jeremy Doku is closing in on a similar long-term commitment, while Josko Gvardiol – long the subject of transfer speculation involving Bayern Munich and Real Madrid – is expected to follow and put pen to paper on fresh terms in the coming weeks.
Together, those respective moves paint a clear picture of Manchester City’s officials moving decisively to establish stability during its first managerial transition in a decade, as Enzo Maresca takes on the reins left behind by Pep Guardiola in late-May.
Here is a comprehensive overview of the contract expiry dates now set across the Italian manager’s current first-team squad after Abdukodir Khusanov’s extension on Saturday.
2027
Rodri – Entering into the final year of his current deal with speculation over a Real Madrid move ongoing. While a contract extension at City has been described as a priority for the club, no fresh terms have been agreed.
Mateo Kovacic – No reports yet of renewal talks underway, and Elliot Anderson’s arrival will only further hinder his game-time this season should he stay.
Jack Grealish – Despite returning to the club this summer and working as part of Enzo Maresca’s pre-season group, the Englishman is still expected to leave on another loan or permanent deal.
Marcus Bettinelli – Playing an integral role as City’s third-choice goalkeeper, and handed a new one-year extension only this summer to keep him at the club for a further season.
Issa Kabore, Josh Wilson-Esbrand – Expected to leave this summer.
2028
Jeremy Doku – Reported to be finalising fresh terms until 2031, mirroring the official Phil Foden and Abdukodir Khusanov extensions, though not yet announced by the club.
Josko Gvardiol – Contracted through until 2028 at present, though a new extension until 2031 is reportedly expected to be announced soon, despite continued interest from European heavyweights this summer.
Matheus Nunes – Having excelled as Pep Guardiola’s leading right-back last season, you can expect City to be actively exploring the possibility of renewed and improved terms for the Portugal international.
Claudio Echeverri – Work to do in order to prove that he has a clear future at Manchester City, although there will be little concern about the player entering into the final two years of his deal.
Kalvin Phillips – Expected to leave either permanently or on loan this summer.
2029
Ruben Dias, Omar Marmoush, Nico Gonzalez, Vitor Reis – All tied down on longer-term deals, providing a settled core across defence and attack on paper. However, it remains to be seen whether Marmoush and Gonzalez will stay beyond the summer transfer window.
2030
Rayan Cherki, Phil Foden, Sverre Nypan, Nico O’Reilly, Tijjani Reijnders, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Rayan Ait-Nouri, Rico Lewis, James Trafford, Max Alleyne – Foden’s new four-year deal (with the option of a further year to 2031) headlines this group, joining a settled spine of players committed through the turn of the decade. Doubts continue to linger over the futures of Reijnders, Lewis, and Trafford in particular.
2031
Abdukodir Khusanov, Pierce Charles, Elliot Anderson, Antoine Semenyo, Marc Guehi, Savinho, Jeremy Monga, Juma Bah – The former saw his long-term extension confirmed on Saturday; a five-year extension replacing his previous deal which had been due to run to 2029. Savinho continues to attract attention from Tottenham, while Bah could head out on loan.
2034
Erling Haaland – Manchester City’s longest-tenured contractual commitment, locked in on a deal running through to 2034.
