The Portuguese defender has won 10 trophies under Pep Guardiola since joining City from Benfica for £62 million in 2020 and is eyeing more success after committing his future to the club.

Dias said: "My job now is to be the best I can be for the duration of this contract, so that I can play my part in helping us challenge for more silverware.

"I want to thank my teammates, Pep, Hugo [Viana, City’s sporting director], the coaching staff and everyone at the club. This is such a special place, and I am grateful every single day for the support I receive. Now the hard work begins, and I want to promise the fans that I will give everything to win more trophies and bring more success to City."

He continued: "I love Manchester – it is my home now – and I love the Manchester City fans.

"Their support from day one has been absolutely unbelievable, and I appreciate them a lot. When I think about the trophies we have won and the way we have played our football during my time, I couldn’t imagine playing anywhere else."

Viana says that City are "excited" that Dias has committed to playing at the Etihad Stadium for years to come.

The director of football commented: "As a club, we’re really excited that Ruben has signed a new contract and committed his long-term future to the club.

"His hard work, professionalism and sheer dedication are clear to all of us every single day, He is a leader in the dressing room and on the pitch. He is one of our captains, the players listen to him and Pep and the coaching staff love working with him. He is the ultimate professional.

"His performances over the past five years have been outstanding and he is a big reason why we have been so successful. Every time Ruben pulls on a City shirt, he gives his all for the badge and we are so happy to know he will be here for the next four years."
