Manchester City forward Khadija “Bunny” Shaw signs a new four-year contract, keeping her at the club. Sky Sports and the Jamaica Observer both report that the agreement is announced as an extension that runs for another four years, following uncertainty over her future. The Jamaica Observer describes the update as coming at an “eleventh-hour” moment after UK media reports suggested Shaw might leave City when her existing deal ends. Her current contract was set to expire at the end of the 2025/26 Women’s Super League season, a campaign in which City won the WSL title. Shaw is described as a key contributor to that success and as the league’s top scorer for a record third consecutive season. The Jamaica Observer also cites reports that negotiations had stalled on contract details, including the proposed length of a new deal, and mentions that a £1 million offer had been discussed in connection with Chelsea. In her public comments accompanying the announcement, Shaw says she is staying, expresses continued motivation, and indicates she has no desire to move away from the club.

- Khadija “Bunny” Shaw signs a new four-year contract extension with Manchester City.
- The extension is announced after prior reporting suggested she could leave when her existing deal ends.
- Her current contract was due to run until the end of the 2025/26 season, when City win the Women’s Super League title.
- Shaw is described as a key player in City’s 2025/26 success and as the WSL top scorer for a third consecutive season.
- Shaw publicly states she is staying, responding to transfer speculation.
In an eleventh-hour announcement, Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw has indicated she will be staying with Manchester City in a deal set to last another four years. The news was shared on the club's website via footage from Co-op Live, with Shaw commenting on reports of a pending transfer. “I am still here, I’m still hungry, and there’s no place I’d rather be,” the Jamaica international said. The comments come after reports out of the United Kingdom (UK) had indicated that the prolific forward would leave City at the end of her contract despite a strong desire to remain at the club. The Jamaican’s existing deal should have expired at the end of the 2025/26 campaign in which City successfully chased down the Women’s Super League (WSL) title. Shaw was described as key to that success and was the league’s top scorer for a record third successive season. UK media had reported that both sides were unable to agree on key contract details, including the proposed length of a new deal and with a 1 million pound offer on the table it seemed Chelsea had all but sealed the deal.
