Nicolas Otamendi agrees Manchester City contract extension to 2022 after stellar campaign under Pep Guardiola

Manchester City have secured the long-term future of Nicolas Otamendi after agreeing to extend his contract to 2022.

The Argentine international has been a key figure under Pep Guardiola this season and has been rewarded with a two-year extension to the deal he originally signed when joining from Valencia in 2015.

Otamendi's new contract will take him past his 34th birthday and could therefore see him bring an end to a stellar playing career at the Etihad Stadium.

Following an unconvincing start to life at Manchester City, Otamendi has thrived under the stewardship of Pep Guardiola, who described the Argentine international as a 'superman' earlier this season.
