Sergio Gómez will be Manchester City’s final signing of the summer, unless someone leaves, according to Pep Guardiola. The Spanish full-back is close to sealing a €10m (£8.5m) move from Anderlecht.
City began the season without an orthodox senior left-back in the squad, starting João Cancelo, who has played there regularly since arriving at City, against West Ham in their opening fixture, with teenage full-backs Joshua Wilson-Ebrand and Rico Lewis on the bench. Gómez will not sign in time to face Bournemouth on Saturday, meaning Cancelo is likely to retain his place.
