Man City close to agreement with Rico Lewis over new contract
Manchester City is reportedly nearing an agreement with Rico Lewis for a new contract extension. The talented 20-year-old defender currently has a deal in place until 2028, and discussions are underway to extend it until 2030, potentially including a one-year option. This news comes as a relief to City fans, especially given the interest shown by Nottingham Forest, who pursued signing the young star. However, it appears Lewis is ready to continue his journey with Manchester City.

The existing contract, expiring in 2028, has served Lewis well as he rises through the ranks at City. The proposed extension to 2030, along with an option for an additional year, indicates the club’s commitment to nurturing his development. Notably, there is no release clause in the new agreement, which signifies that Manchester City values Lewis as a crucial part of their future plans.
