Manchester City defender Nathan Ake has signed a new contract.

Ake has penned a new deal to 2027 with the Treble winners.

"This is the best club in the world, I have no doubts about that. Being a Manchester City player makes me incredibly proud every single day," said Ake.

"It's a club that expects excellence in every area, which makes for the perfect environment to improve. I am at the stage of my career where I want to keep developing and I can definitely do that here.

"Pep [Guardiola] is the best manager in football - a genius who has made me see the game differently - so to be able to work with him for longer is a real privilege.

"I am so grateful to him for everything he has done for me, both personally and professionally."

City's director of football Txiki Begiristain said: "We have been delighted with Nathan's development, so it's great news for this club that he is extending his time with us.

"There is no doubt he was a very important part of our Treble success last season, but I believe he can be even better.

"Technically, tactically and physically he has everything we want in a defender - and he is so professional, dedicated and willing to learn, which for Pep is an ideal scenario.

"Nathan is also an incredible human being who has the respect of absolutely everybody at the club."
