I don't think there should be any doubt that there will be a redesign with the new MBP. You only have to look at the recent update including Force Touch, but not the butterfly keyboard... because the latter would require a redesign. Unless you think that the MBP isn't going to get the keyboard update.
I doubt the update will appear until next year, but I wouldn't be putting too much stock in the lack of leaks. Calling it a redesign is likely overstating it. It will get a little slimmer, we'll probably get some colour options, new ports and maybe an all metal design. It's not going to be significantly different.
I just hope they keep the SD Card slot and move to USB C charging.
