Signs new contract with City O'Reilly has signed a new contract with Manchester City until the end of the 2029/30 season, the club announced Friday.

Impact O'Reilly has been seeing minutes as a backup left-back this season, and it seems the club trusts him enough to see him as a long-term piece after this latest contract extension. O'Reilly has been linked with a move away from the Etihad Stadium in recent months, but this new deal will end that speculation for now.

Returns in cup O'Reilly (knock) started and played 77 minutes during Wednesday's Carabao Cup clash with Huddersfield Town.

Impact O'Reilly picked up a knock during the draw with Arsenal, but was deemed fit enough to return straight away. The fact that he returned with no time off is a great sign the injury isn't serious. O'Reilly will be back in contention for minutes during Saturday's clash with Burnley.

Forced off late Sunday O'Reilly (undisclosed) was forced off in the 87th minute of Sunday's 1-1 draw against Arsenal due to an apparent injury, according to City Xtra.

Impact O'Reilly suffered an apparent injury in Sunday's draw against the Gunners and was forced off late in the game. The left-back contributed decently before that with two tackles, one interception, and six clearances. O'Reilly will likely be assessed in the coming days to know the extent of the issue, and if he has to miss some time to recover, his absence will be a blow for Manchester City since he started the last three games and Rayan Ait-Nouri (knee) is still sidelined for one month. Nathan Ake and Josko Gvardiol will be the potential options at left-back to replace him if he has to spend some time on the sidelines.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Starting against United O'Reilly (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Manchester United.

Impact O'Reilly is fit once again and is immediately seeing a start, appearing at left-back to begin Sunday's match. He has now appeared in three games this campaign, although this is only his first start of the season.

Could be back Sunday O'Reilly (undisclosed) could be available for Sunday's derby against Manchester United, coach Pep Guardiola said in the press conference. "The rest are fine."

Impact O'Reilly has been withdrawn from the England U21 squad due to an undisclosed injury that revealed to be minor since he resumed team training this week without any issue. The defender is expected to be available for Sunday's derby against United, altough his potential return won't affect the starting squad since he has been only a bench option so far this season.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Won't join England U21 squad O'Reilly (undisclosed) has been withdrawn from the England U21 squad due to injury, the club announced.

Impact O'Reilly seems to be dealing with an undisclosed injury as he has been withdrawn from the England U21 squad and will therefore not participate in this month's opening 2027 UEFA Under-21 EURO qualifier. The defensive midfielder will likely be assessed in the coming days by the medical staff to determine the extent of his injury and if he could be back available for the derby against Manchester United on Sept. 14 after the international break. That said, if he is not deemed fit enough for the game, his absence will not impact the starting XI since he has featured two times off the bench in the three Premier League games this season.

SEPTEMBER 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Breaks out to end campaign O'Reilly started in six of his nine appearances while registering two goals on eight shots to go along with four chances created, eight crosses and nine tackles.

Impact O'Reilly had a fruitful end to the season as he was offered first-team minutes and did the most with his time on the field, maintaining the starting role for nearly the final two months of the season. His addition would be sparked by some injuries and forced changes, but his goals in back-to-back games and presence to move forward in the attack would lead to more minutes moving forward. The youngster seems to be set for a much larger role next season if he can continue this upward trend, although some choices will have to be made with both him and Josko Gvardiol favoring the left flank of the defense.

Goes unused O'Riley was unused off the bench in Tuesday's 3-1 win over Bournemouth.

Impact O'Riley went unused for the first time since March following his slight breakout at the end of the season, with the defender making the team sheet but not appearing Tuesday. Since his last time missing out on an appearance, he has started in eight of his nine outings, making a good name for himself moving into the offseason. During that span, he has seen four goal contributions, with two goals and two assists, a great two-way player on the left flank.

Scores in consecutive games O'Reilly scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 win against Everton.

Impact O'Reilly seems to be catching form late into the season after being given a chance the past few matches, now having started in four straight games for the club. He would bag a goal in the 84th minute, with that goal being the eventual winner, with Everton not bagging a response. The left-back now has a goal in consecutive matches, with those his only two goal contributions of the campaign.
