Teenager Mukasa extends Man City contract

[Getty Images] Young midfielder Divine Mukasa has extended his contract at Manchester City until 2030. The 18-year-old joined City from West Ham in September 2023 and shone as the age group lifted the FA Youth Cup trophy at the end of the season. He registered 42 goal involvements in 41 games the following season as City claimed the Under-18 Premier League North title. Last season, he broke into Pep Guardiola's first team and made six appearances, providing an assist for Phil Foden on his debut in the Carabao Cup victory at Huddersfield Town . He continued his development in the second half of the season on loan at Leicester City , as the Foxes were relegated to League One. "I am really excited to see what the future has in store for me," said Mukasa. "I have learned so much since the day I arrived at the club from players and staff alike. The experiences I have gained have definitely bettered me as a player and a person. "With this said, I can only use the environment to continue to progress. My taste of first-team football at City earlier last season has only furthered my ambition to compete at the highest level."
