Manchester City extend Rúben Dias’ contract until 2029 | OneFootball

This Friday, Manchester City announced the contract renewal of Portuguese defender Rúben Dias. The new bond of the 28-year-old defender will last until June 2029.

At Manchester City since 2020, Rúben Dias has established himself as one of the best defenders in the world. Under Guardiola's command, the Portuguese player forms a duo with Englishman Stones and is the team's absolute starter.

In his five seasons with Manchester City, Rúben Dias has taken to the field 223 times and won ten trophies, including four English Championships and one Champions League. Additionally, the defender was the best player in the Premier League in 2021.

"Being here and signing this contract kind of sums everything up. It's a big celebration of everything that's happened. All the memories I have at this club, all the titles and all the effort. It's a special moment. Most of them will always have a place in my heart," said the defender in an interview with Manchester City's official website.

With the renewed contract, Rúben Dias turns his attention to the current season. Manchester City started with a win, thrashing Wolves 4-0 in the English Championship opener. Guardiola's team returns to the field this Saturday, at 08:30 (Brasília time), when they host Tottenham at Etihad Stadium, in the second round of the Premier League.
