Manchester City have quietly made their first move of the summer transfer window, tying down popular goalkeeper Scott Carson to a new extension.
If it wasn't a must-win final day showdown, there may have been some Manchester City fans hoping for a surprise Scott Carson appearance on Sunday.
Fans were delighted to learn of Carson's one-year extension on Thursday, with Sporting Director Txiki Begiristain hinting at more appearances for the 38-year-old in future. “We’re very pleased he has agreed to extend his contract. Hopefully he can help the squad and be ready when called upon on the pitch in the 2024/25 season," he said.
Carson's extension also means there are no longer any senior players out of contract this summer, avoiding a repeat of last year when Ilkay Gundogan was allowed to leave on a free. Carson will be out of contract next year, as will goalkeeping colleague Stefan Ortega, while Ederson would only have a year left.
