Broove 5-1 this Sunday by Arsenal, Manchester City looks gray. If the English club has risen from its complicated start to the season and points to fourth place far from being catastrophic, we are far from the team that crushed the Premier League over the last seasons. To get up, the residents of Etihad Stadium were however active on the winter transfer window.

Already spending 158 million euros with the arrivals of Omar Marmoush (Eintracht Frankfurt), Abdukodir Khusanov (RC Lens), Vitor Reis (Palmeiras), Juma Bah (Real Valladolid then loaned to Lens) and Christian McFarla (New York City) , the English club has just offered a new player for an XXL figure with Nico Gonzalez.

Manchester City paid for his release clause

The 23 -year -old Spanish midfielder born in La Corugne and trained at FC Barcelona is currently living his second season on the side of FC Porto, where he landed against 8.4 million euros in the summer of 2023. Unavoidable in the Métre, the son of Fran Gonzalez (16 capes with Spain), has a crazy season with 29 appearances for 7 goals and 6 offerings with the dragons.

Manchester City who raised his release clause of 60 million euros proudly announced his arrival in a press release: “Manchester City finalized the signature of Nico Gonzalez from Porto. The 23 -year -old joins City for a four and a half year contract which maintains him linked to the club until 2029. Versatile midfielder, Gonzalez becomes the fourth recruit of City in this window, joining Abdukodir Khusanov, Vitor Reis and Omar Marmoush as new additions to the workforce of Pep Guardiola ”. Guardiola was spoiled!
