Joao Cancelo has signed a new contract that will keep him at Manchester City until 2027.
Cancelo's deal was set to expire in 2025, but he has penned a two-year extension with the reigning Premier League champions.
Portugal international Cancelo, 27, who joined from Juventus in a deal worth £60million in 2019, has made 106 appearances for City, winning three major trophies in as many years.
Cancelo said: “Manchester City is a fantastic club, so I am incredibly happy to have signed this new agreement.
“City players have everything they need to reach their full potential, with amazing facilities, world-class team-mates and an incredible manager who pushes us every single day.

“There is nowhere better to play football and it’s a pleasure to work here. I have so much I want to achieve before my career ends, and Manchester City offers me the best chance of fulfilling my ambitions.
“This new contract means I now have complete focus on improving my game and winning more trophies with this team.
“It makes all the sense to extend my contract. My first season was tough, but in my second and third season, both the team and I have done things well.
“I think from all the clubs I played; this is the club that I have improved the most as a player.
“I learned how to become a more versatile player. I feel I can play in different positions now, not only right-back or left-back.
“I feel I can play in several positions on the pitch, and I think it is easier in this team because of the quality all the players have. It's easier to play in this team than in any other team.”
City Director of Football Txiki Begiristain said: “Joao is the ultimate professional. He absolutely loves football and applies himself every single day in a bid to become better.
“He sets really high standards, and any young player should observe the way Joao applies himself if they want a blueprint for success.
“Not only does he have incredible talent, he also displays perfect dedication to this sport. That’s why he can play so many games at such a high level.
“His consistency during the last two seasons has been amazing. “He is so versatile.
“Whether he plays right-back, left-back or in midfield, he operates at the same high level. That is a dream for a manager.”
