Khadija "Bunny" Shaw has signed a four year contract extension at Manchester City, the WSL champions have confirmed.
Shaw, who won the Football Writers Association (FWA) Footballer of the Year following another stellar season, had been linked with a move away from the club, with Chelsea interested in the star forward, but she will remain in Manchester until 2030.
The announcement was made at City's end of season parade.
"I've always said that Manchester City feels like home, I've developed so much as a player and grown so much as a person during my first five years here," Shaw said.
"Helping the girls win the WSL title is one of the proudest moments of my career, and I'm so excited to see what we can do next season and beyond -- although there's one more huge game to come against Brighton!
"To the City fans, thank you for always supporting us all. I'm so happy to be on this memorable journey with you all and can't wait to see what we can achieve in the future."
City will face Brighton in the Women's FA Cup final on Sunday.
Keeping Shaw is a big win for City. The 29-year-old is a three-time WSL Golden Boot winner and scored 21 goals in 22 games this season as City won the title.
Her tally meant Shaw became the first player in the competition's history to score over 20 goals in three separate campaigns.

Shaw joined City in 2021 from Bordeaux and has 117 goals and 28 assists in 137 appearances across all competitions for the club.
City director of football Therese Sjogran added: "We're delighted that Bunny has agreed to another four years at Manchester City.
"We've had a tremendous 2025-26 campaign, and she's been a key figure in that success. I'm sure if we also get the result we're hoping for in the FA Cup final on Sunday, she'll have played a huge role in that as well.
"The stats and awards speak for themselves, but there's so much more to Bunny than what she does on the pitch. She has become a real leader in the team and I'm sure she'll be a driving force on our return to Champions League football next season and our push to retain the WSL title.
"It's a huge statement from City that we've secured the services of one of the best centre-forwards in the world, but also from Bunny that she believes we're the best place for her to succeed.
"I'd like to thank her for that continued faith in what we're hoping to achieve."
