Pep Guardiola has signed a new contract with Manchester City, extending his stay with the club until 2023. Manchester City made this announcement on Thursday, ending rumour that Guardiola could leave the club at the expiration of his former contract.

“The contract, which now runs to the summer of 2023, sees Guardiola’s commitment to City extended to seven years,” Man City said in a statement.

Guardiola, 49, arrived at Man City in 2016, elevating the club to a major contender in the English Premier League.

In a series of tweets on Thursday Guardiola said his new contract will see him stay in Manchester City longer than he ever did with any club.

“Since I have been here, we have achieved a great deal together, scored goals, won games and trophies, and we are all very proud of that success”, Guardiola said.
