Only one year after joining Manchester City, Ruben Diaz's outstanding defensive ability not only allowed him to be recognized by the team, but also finally won him a six-year contract extension. On August 30th local time, Manchester City officially announced that they had reached an agreement with the players on the renewal of Dias. With Diaz signing the new contract, Manchester City at least ensured that the team will have a reliable general guarding the midfield until the summer of 2027, and the Portuguese will also receive a higher salary than before the renewal.

"I am very happy to sign the contract extension with Manchester City," Dias, who completed the contract extension, said excitedly to Manchester City's official website. "Since joining last year, I have enjoyed every minute of my time at Manchester City. Playing for Manchester City has surpassed all my past expectations. I am also very happy to be part of such an incredible team. Pep and the coaching team sincerely thank them for continuously pushing me to continue to improve and make me a better player."

At the same time, Diaz did not forget to express his vision for the future of the team in the interview. He stated to the official website that he and his team are eager to achieve greater achievements in the new season. The consistency of their goals is also the main catalyst for his decision to renew his contract with Manchester City: "The club is very ambitious and wants to be the best team. , And I am full of eagerness to fight for the club’s goals. I have the same ambitions as Manchester City. This may be one of the most important things. We also want to win more. Even though we have spent it before. A great season, but the upcoming season will be the best one."

"For the club, Ruben's renewal is undoubtedly good news. Although Ruben has joined us for less than a year, he has already proven his ability as a core member of the team during this period of time." In an interview with Manchester City’s official website, Manchester City Sports Director Begiristan strongly emphasized the importance of Dias to the team: “We hope to express recognition of his outstanding contribution through a new contract. Ruben satisfies everyone’s satisfaction. With all the requirements of the central defender, he will be an important member of the club in the next few years. All Manchester City congratulate Ruben on his renewal and wish him all the best in his future Manchester City career."

After switching from Benfica to Manchester City in September last year at a price of 65 million euros, the 24-year-old Dias immediately proved with actual performance that he was indeed worthy of a sky-high transfer fee: in the past season, the Portuguese earned 50%. In all competitions, he has built a solid defense for Manchester City. His strong defensive ability has allowed Blue Moon to not only win the league championship and the Carabao Cup, but even reach the Champions League final in history. With his outstanding performance last season, Diaz has earned many personal honors in his first season in the Premier League, including PFA Player of the Year, Premier League Player of the Year and Manchester City Player of the Year. Earlier he was named the best defender in the Champions League last season.
