Man City plan new contract talks with senior trio

Manchester City are planning new contract talks with three senior players.

The Daily Star says City will offer Rodri, Riyad Mahrez and Ilkay Gundogan new contracts to keep them at the Etihad.

The trio have all played a huge role in City's recent success and Pep Guardiola is keen to ensure their stay at the club is extended.

Rodri's current contract expires in two years and he is now set to get a 'lucrative' pay rise.

The 25-year-old will be offered close to £125,000 a week, a big rise compared to his current £70,000 weekly wage.

Rodri has been ever-present in City's midfield since joining from Atletico Madrid for £56million in 2019.

Riyad Mahrez and Ilkay Gundogan both have contracts that expire at the end of next season, but they're also expected to extend their stay in Manchester.
