The Telegraph: City talked to Sterling for a contract extension at the end of the season, and both sides are optimistic

According to the Daily Telegraph, Sterling will negotiate a contract extension with Manchester City at the end of the season.

Manchester City and Sterling's contract will end next summer and he currently earns £300,000 a week. It is understood that both sides are currently optimistic about the renewal negotiations, and they will negotiate a renewal at the end of the season. In October last year, Sterling was unhappy with his situation in the team, hoping for a stable starting position. City later realized the problem and agreed to Sterling's request. Sterling has scored eight goals in his last 13 games and should have been his happiest time of the year.

City had planned to discuss a contract extension with Sterling early last year, but the job had to be postponed because Sterling and his agent terminated their partnership. In March last year, Sterling's form declined, which forced him to sit on the team's bench for a long time, but despite this, he started in last year's Champions League final against Chelsea. Moreover, Sterling also had a good performance at last year's European Championship, but this did not change his situation in manchester City at that time, and he told reporters last October: "If there is an option that can get more opportunities to play, I am willing to accept." ”

Sterling was once associated with Barca, but eventually Barca signed his team-mate Ferran Torres for £55m. For Sterling, the future at Manchester City seems brighter and it is thought he should focus on his future at Manchester City and continue to maintain his form.
