Oscar Bobb has signed a new three-year contract with Manchester City, in a new deal that will keep him at the Club until the summer of 2029.
Having joined Manchester City’s youth ranks in the summer of 2019 from Norwegian side Valerenga, the attacking midfielder went on to enjoy four stellar seasons within the City Academy before being elevated into the first team squad last summer.
Since then, the 20-year-old has continued to take huge strides in his development, making his Premier League and UEFA Champions League debuts as well as also registering his maiden goals for the Club in both competitions.
Bobb was also part of the City squad that lifted both the UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup in the latter part of 2023.
All told, the Norwegian international has so far made 16 appearances across all competitions this term, scoring twice and also providing two assists.
Commenting on his new deal, Oscar said; “I am very proud and honoured to have signed my new contract with City.”
“It’s an incredible environment and the best possible place to be for a young player – I have already learnt so much from Pep, his coaching staff and my team-mates.”
“To know I’m going to be here at the Club until 2029 means everything to me.”
“Now I just want to focus on continuing to further my development and to work as hard as I can every day to try and help then Club achieve more success.”
City Director of Football Txiki Begiristain added; “Oscar is blessed with superb natural talent and technique and has already established himself as a very important member of the squad.”
“He is an exciting young player who is always hungry to learn and who takes on board all the advice and guidance Pep and the coaching staff provide him with.”
“We have been delighted to watch his progression from our Academy through to the first team and to see his fantastic ability, attitude and application continue to prosper.”
“And to have another young player emerge from our Academy and become a first-team player is a source of huge pride for everyone at the football club.”
“Oscar is developing all the time, and we believe he can help to bring even more success to the Club in the coming years.”
