Sterling signs new City contract worth £300,000 a week
Raheem Sterling has signed a three-year contract extension at Manchester City, committing him to the club until 2023 in a deal worth up to £300,000 a week.
The 23-year-old England forward’s previous deal at Etihad Stadium was due to expire at the end of next season.
It is understood the new contract will make Sterling one of the best-paid English players in the Premier League.
“I’m delighted to sign. My development here has been incredible,” said Sterling.
“I felt from the minute I got here it was the right choice for me. It’s paid off and I’m really grateful.”
Sterling, who has scored seven goals for the club this season, joined City from Liverpool in a £49m deal in 2015.
He scored 23 goals last season as the Blues won the Premier League and Carabao Cup.
Capped 46 times by England, he scored twice against Spain last month – his first international goals for three years.
