Man City move to hand Dias new pay-hike

Manchester City are moving to upgrade the contract of Ruben Dias.

The Portugal defender only joined City a year ago from Benfica and went onto to win the Premier League's Player of the Year as he helped the club finish the campaign champions.

Dias has a deal with City until 2026, however the Athletic reports talks over a new arrangement are underway.

City intend to up the terms for Dias as a reward for the success of his debut season in England.

John Stones, Phil Foden, Raheem Sterling, Riyad Mahrez and Ederson are also in line for new deals.
