Jeremy Doku Signs New Five-Year Contract with Manchester City Until 2031

Manchester City have confirmed that Belgian winger Jeremy Doku has signed a new five-year contract, committing his future to the club until at least 2031. The deal ties the 24-year-old to the Etihad Stadium as the club enters its next chapter.

Doku joined City from Stade Rennais in 2023 and has established himself as one of the Premier League’s most dangerous wide players, combining pace with technical precision. He is the latest in a line of key figures to extend their stay this summer, following Phil Foden, Josko Gvardiol, and Abdukodir Khusanov.

Doku Speaks on His Commitment to the Club

The Belgian international made clear how much the decision meant to him personally.

“I have loved my time at City so far, so to have the opportunity to stay for longer is a fantastic feeling. This club means so much to me — I have developed as both a player and a person. I feel settled here, and I know I am improving every day because of the work the staff here do. It’s hard to explain just how much this club does to help players.”

Doku also pointed to the supporters as a direct factor in his decision.

“The City fans are also a huge reason I have signed this new contract. I feel their love and support, and it means the world to me. I want to focus on bringing them the success they deserve.”

Building Around Doku Under Enzo Maresca

The renewal arrives as City transition under manager Enzo Maresca, who is reportedly keen to build his attacking system around Doku’s specific qualities. Doku expressed enthusiasm for the new direction.

“With Enzo here now I am really excited about the new season. His style of football is the kind we love, so that’s exciting for the players.”

Viana Praises Doku’s Growth and Character

Manchester City Director of Football Hugo Viana was direct in his assessment of the winger’s value to the squad.

“Jeremy is a huge talent whose improvement since joining us in 2023 is clear for all to see. He has a special dynamic. He has the right characteristics for what we are looking for in a winger. He really does bring a special quality to our team. Jeremy is also a fantastic person. He is someone loved across the club. His attitude is first class, and he wants to improve every single day. He deserves this new deal, and I know he will continue his improvement in the coming months and years.”

A Historic Debut and Consistent Output

Doku’s debut campaign at City was historic. Against Bournemouth, he became the youngest player in Premier League history to record four assists and five goal involvements in a single match. Across that season, he made over 40 appearances, contributing six goals and 11 assists as City claimed a fourth consecutive league title.

The 2024-25 season presented greater challenges across the squad, but Doku finished with eight goals and nine assists, displaying increased maturity and defensive discipline. By the 2025-26 campaign he was indispensable, proving pivotal in a domestic cup double under Pep Guardiola’s final year in charge. He provided the equalizer and an assist for Nico’s winner in the FA Cup semi-final against Southampton.

With five more years secured and a new manager building around his profile, Doku is positioned as central to City’s ambitions going forward. Follow TipsGG for full coverage of Manchester City’s 2025-26 campaign.
