Dedryck Boyata’s Future at Manchester City in the Balance as Contract Renewal Looms
Manchester, England – Dedryck Boyata, the young Belgian international of Congolese descent, is facing a key decision regarding his future at Manchester City. Despite limited playing time in the Premier League, the 23-year-old defender is considering renewing his contract with the club, which expires in June.
Boyata, who has previously expressed a desire for more consistent first-team action, has failed to establish himself as a regular in City’s starting lineup. As a result, the Belgian Under-21 international is exploring other opportunities, with reports indicating interest from several clubs. However, Manchester City is eager to retain his services and is reportedly offering guarantees of more playing time to persuade the defender to stay.
The Sky Blues management, keen on holding onto the talented center-back, have made it clear they are prepared to accommodate his concerns about match minutes, offering him a more prominent role within the squad. Boyata, who has spent several seasons at City, has not made a final decision yet and is taking time to weigh his options.
Sources suggest that a decision could be made as early as next week, with an extension potentially on the cards if both sides can agree on the terms. The coming days will be crucial in determining whether Boyata’s future lies at Manchester City or elsewhere, as he seeks to find the right balance between career progression and playing time.
