Omar Elabdellaoui signs new Manchester City deal

Winger Omar Elabdellaoui has signed a new two-year contract with Premier League champions Manchester City.

The 20-year-old, who signed on at the Etihad Stadium in 2008, has yet to make a senior appearance for the Citizens.

As a result, he has admitted that he was unsure as to whether or not City wanted to retain his services.

"I wasn't sure what was going to happen towards the end of last season or what City were thinking so it was great to be offered a new deal," he told the club's official website.

"I didn't know if I'd be on the pre-season tour or not so I was really happy to be included in the party because it is really good to be around the senior players that are here in Austria and things couldn't be going better.

"I'm enjoying training, feeling sharper every day and it was great to get a run out against Al Hilal on Friday evening. We have two more games left on this tour and I hope I can be involved in those matches, too."

Elabdellaoui is currently part of the Norwegian Under-21s side.
