Defender Josko Gvardiol has agreed a new contract at Manchester City until the summer of 2031, sources have told BBC Sport.
The 24-year-old’s current deal was set to expire in 2028 but the player is now set to remain at Etihad Stadium, ending speculation, external about a move to La Liga giants Real Madrid and Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich.
BBC Sport reported last week that City were feeling positive in conversations around a new contract and that talks were progressing well.
Gvardiol is currently preparing for the World Cup with Croatia and could come up against some of his City team-mates in their opening game against England on Wednesday (kick-off 21:00 BST).
Gvardiol won City’s player of the season award in 2024-25 but played only 25 games in all competitions last season as his campaign was disrupted for four months after sustaining a broken leg in January.
Adept at playing centre-back or left-back, he returned to Premier League action in May by featuring in 58 minutes against Crystal Palace and the last 12 minutes in the final game of the season against Aston Villa.
