After a string of substitute appearances, Lewis was given his first start in the Champions League on 2 November 2022, scoring the equaliser in a 3–1 comeback win against Sevilla. In doing so, he became the youngest scorer on a first start in a Champions League match, and City's youngest ever Champions League scorer, aged 17 years and 346 days. Lewis received racist abuse during the match from Sevilla fans. On 28 December, he was given his first start in the Premier League, in a 3–1 win over Leeds United, playing until the 68th minute, coming off for João Cancelo.
On 20 May 2023, Manchester City won the 2022–23 Premier League title, with Lewis playing 14 matches, starting 10. His team also won the FA Cup, with him playing all games but the final, completing a domestic double.

On 15 August 2023, Lewis signed a new five-year contract with City. He scored his first league goal for the club on 16 December in a 2–2 draw at home to Crystal Palace. On 22 December, Lewis started in central midfield in the 2023 FIFA Club World Cup final, playing 60 minutes as City beat Fluminense 4–0 in Jeddah to become world champions for the first time.
On 27 April 2025, Lewis scored his first FA Cup goal in the 2nd minute of City's 2–0 semi-final victory against Nottingham Forest, helping his team reach their third successive final in the competition. On 18 June, during the opening match of the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, he was shown a straight red card in a 2–0 victory over Wydad AC. The dismissal led to an extended suspension, ruling him out for the remainder of the tournament. On 12 September, he extended his contract with the club until 2030. Later that month, on 27 September, Lewis made his 100th appearance for Manchester City, coming on as an 83rd-minute substitute in a 5–1 home victory against Burnley in the Premier League.
