Manchester City are in talks with Fernandinho over a new contract at the Etihad.
The five-year deal signed by the Brazil midfielder when he joined from Shakhtar Donetsk for £30million in 2013 is due to run out next year and it is understood there is a willingness on both sides to agree new terms as quickly as possible.
Fernandinho, 32, has been one of City's most consistent performers under Pep Guardiola and started every game this season before Wednesday night's Carabao Cup tie at West Bromwich Albion, where he was on the bench.
