The contract situations of Sadio Mané and Mohamed Salah are causing Liverpool a lot of issues, and Manchester City could capitalise on that to dominate English football for even longer.
In May 2021, City announced Kevin De Bruyne had penned a fresh two-year contract extension at the club, keeping him in blue until at least 2025. That was in the same season Pep Guardiola committed to a further 24 months at the Etihad Stadium - maintaining the club's near-impeccable contract business.
It's been a theme of City's glowing decade; when they know a player is blossoming, they tie them down to a long-term contract almost immediately. Leroy Sané is the only exception to the rule, but his current struggles at Bayern Munich may tell us everything we need to know.
