Show current day in the middle

I have a while loop that shows 5 days. The first day is the current day and the other ones are the next 4. This is my code:

$datetime = new \DateTime();

$listItem = array('<li class="active">', '</li>');

$i = 0;
while (true) {
    if ($i === 5) break;

    if ($datetime->format('N') === '7' && $i === 0) {
        $datetime->add(new \DateInterval('P1D'));
        continue;        
    }

    echo $listItem[0] . $datetime->format('D d-m') . $listItem[1];
    $listItem = array('<li>', '</li>');    

    $datetime->add(new \DateInterval('P1D'));

    $i++;
}

The result looks like this: enter image description here

My problem is, I want the current day to be in the middle. Where saturday is should be the current day. Do you know how to do this?

Thanks in advance.

Please Try Below Code : 

$datetime = new \DateTime();

$listItem = array('<li">', '</li>');
$listItem_active = array('<li class="active">', '</li>');

$i = 0;
while (true) {

    if ($i === 5) break;

    if ($datetime->format('N') === '7' && $i === 0) {
        $datetime->add(new \DateInterval('P1D'));
        continue;        
    }

    if($i===0){
        $today = $datetime->format('D d-m');
    }
    if($i===3){
        echo $listItem_active[0] . $today . $listItem_active[1];
    }
    if($i!=0){
        echo $listItem[0] . $datetime->format('D d-m') . $listItem[1];
    }

    $listItem = array('<li>', '</li>');    

    $datetime->add(new \DateInterval('P1D'));

    $i++;
}

You could simply subtract 2 days from your starting day like this.

$datetime = new \DateTime();
$datetime->sub(new \DateInterval('P2D'));

$datetime = new \DateTime();
$datetime->modify('-2 Day');
