Manchester City have confirmed that highly-rated Taylor Harwood-Bellis has put pen to paper on a new long-term contract at the club.
Taylor Harwood-Bellis has signed a new contract that will keep him at the Etihad Stadium until 2024.
The teenager who turns 19 next month has made six senior appearances to date for his boyhood club including both Carabao Cup matches this season.
Harwood-Bellis is seen as one of the most promising players from a pool of talent emerging at the club. He was also part of the U-18s that won the FA Youth Cup in November.
“It is a great moment to spend another four years at this club,” he said to the club’s website.
“It is huge for me and my family being City fans.”
“It is an amazing feeling and something I didn’t hesitate to get done. [My family] were ecstatic when I told them the news that I would be extending my contract and will be staying here for longer.”
“It was a no-brainer if I asked them what they wanted to do, they would just say sign it now! It is amazing.”
Harwood-Bellis has been regular at first-team training and himself and fellow centre-back Eric Garcia won praise from Pep Guardiola for his performance in a Carabao Cup victory over Oxford last year.
However, Garcia has turned a down a contract offer and could yet join Barcelona in January or at the end of the season.
