The 31-year-old said: "I'm very happy to sign the new contract. I've enjoyed every minute of my time here. It's a pleasure to be part of such an amazing club.

"Helping us achieve the success we have enjoyed over the past four seasons has been unforgettable and has left us all looking to do even more.

“I would also like to thank Pep (Guardiola), Txiki (Begiristain) and the coaching staff, both for the way they have helped me develop as a player and for pushing me to keep improving myself.

"Now I just want to try and play my part to help us be successful next season and beyond."

Director of Football Begiristain said: "Riyadh has played a major role in our success in the four years since he joined us, and we are all delighted that he has agreed to this new deal .

"He brought so much to the club with his skills, talent, commitment and desire to win evident from the moment he arrived. I also know that Pep and the coaching staff enjoy working with Riyadh.

"He is one of the most exciting wingers in the game and we are all very happy to know that he will be part of our continued effort to try and achieve more success."
