Manchester City defender Gael Clichy has signed a new four-year contract that will keep him at the Etihad Stadium until 2017.
The 27-year-old joined the Citizens in 2011 from Arsenal in a deal worth in the region of £7m.
Clichy told the club's official website: "I'm really happy to have agreed a new deal with City and I'm already looking forward to next season.
"Things didn't go the way we wanted them to this year but we'll come back stronger next season and learn from this experience.
"This is a fantastic football club and I wouldn't want to be anywhere else. I'm really happy and I am sure it will be this way for many years."
Clichy was an essential part of the City team that helped the club win the Premier League title last season under former manager Roberto Mancini.
