Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak is delighted Pep Guardiola has chosen to extend his stay at the club until 2027.

Having arrived at City in 2016, the deal will take him past 10 years in the City dugout.

“Like every City fan, I am delighted that Pep’s journey with Manchester City will continue, allowing his dedication, passion and innovative thinking to continue to shape the landscape of the game," Al Mubarak said on the club website.

“His hunger for improvement and success remains insatiable and the direct beneficiaries of that will continue to be our players and coaching staff, the culture of our club and the English game at large.

“This renewal will take Pep beyond a decade of coaching Manchester City and the opportunity to continue to re-write the managerial record books.”
