The former Academy player will be part of the Manchester City squad heading to London for our Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday at 19:30 (UK).
Still only 20, Lewis already has an impressive haul of honours having helped us to the Treble in 2022/2023 and three more trophies the following year including our fourth successive Premier League title.
His flexibility has meant that he has taken on a number of roles in the side – playing on both flanks as a full-back and moving into midfield on occasions.
More recently, he has been a regular at right-back and Guardiola says he has been exceptional in defence.
“Since arriving in the first team he’s been really good,” the City boss said in his pre-match news conference.
“He’s a guy who people might say isn’t a good defender but he’s exceptional, so smart and intelligent.
“His physicality isn’t like a defender here but he makes the game better since he arrived.
“He won a lot of titles from his early age. And his impact has been really good.”
