Manuel Akanji has joined Manchester City from Borussia Dortmund on a five-year contract, with the Switzerland defender expressing his delight after becoming Pep Guardiola’s fifth summer signing.
Injuries to Nathan Aké and Aymeric Laporte may have moved the manager to add further depth to his defence. The 27-year-old follows Kalvin Phillips, Stefan Ortega, Sergio Gómez and Erling Haaland, who was also signed from Dortmund, in joining City during this window.
