Oscar Bobb pens new Man City contract until 2029 and explains 'why everybody wants to play' for Pep Guardiola

Premier League

Tottenham

The 20-year-old Norwegian forward came through Manchester City's academy and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/oscar-bobb-man-city-next-norwegian-superstar-hoping-to-follow-phil-foden-path/bltc629ef0a69f9711e" target="_blank">has enjoyed a breakout season under Pep Guardiola</a> this term. Bobb's two goals and two assists in 16 appearances across all competitions have been rewarded with a new five-year contract, City have confirmed, keeping him at the club until 2029.

WHAT HAPPENED?

On extending his stay at the Etihad, the young forward said: "It’s an amazing moment and to know that I get the chance for at least a few years now to hopefully be a part of this club’s first team. It’s an honour. It’s something I really wanted when the opportunity came – it was the only thing I wanted to do. Being part of it for the last couple of months, I feel like I’ve developed more than ever – it was an easy choice.“Playing with some of my idols growing up, it’s a dream come true. It’s strange talking to my friends at home who always ask, ‘how is it?’ and in a way it is crazy, but you do get used to it and you start seeing them as people. It’s nice.”Bobb added on what it's like to play under Guardiola: "I grew up watching not only his early City teams but from his Barcelona and Bayern Munich days. The type of football he plays is amazing and how he improves players is a big factor for why everybody wants to play under him. He’s proven time and time again that he improves players – so intense, so hard working and a nice guy.”

WHAT BOBB SAID

Bobb has already made several vital contributions to City in his breakout season. He scored his first senior goal for the club <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-city-player-ratings-vs-red-star-belgrade-micah-hamilton-oscar-bobb/bltd834255d1da15967" target="_blank">in a Champions League clash against Red Star Belgrade</a> in December before netting the last-minute winner in the league against Newcastle in January, which was awarded the Premier League Goal of the Month. Bobb joins the likes of fellow academy stars Phil Foden <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/rico-lewis-signs-bumper-new-contract-with-man-city-until-2028/bltc9682ba1b3c99023" target="_blank">and Rico Lewis in signing new deals</a> as City look to cement their position at the top of European football for many years to come.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Guardiola's side come up against Luton in the FA Cup fifth round on Tuesday, where the Catalan coach will be <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/jack-grealish-return-man-city-pep-guardiola-provides-injury-update-winger/blt3f78ac8dc7ddd433" target="_blank">able to count on Jack Grealish again</a> after he passed a late fitness test. Bobb will be hoping to feature at some capacity in that fixture as Guardiola looks to rotate his side amid a busy schedule.
