West Cumbrian goalkeeper Scott Carson is poised to sign a one-year contract extension with reigning champions Manchester City, solidifying his role within the squad.
Hailing from Cleator Moor, Carson, though primarily a backup goalkeeper, plays a pivotal off-field leadership role within the club.
Despite limited appearances since joining City five years ago, Carson is highly regarded by manager Pep Guardiola and his teammates for his experience and mentorship qualities.
Carson, originally from Cleator Moor, started his football career at Cleator Moor Celtic and briefly played for Workington Reds before moving to the Leeds United Academy.
After a series of stints with clubs like Liverpool, West Bromwich Albion, Derby County, and others, Carson found a niche at Manchester City, where he has been instrumental behind the scenes.
