Man City transfer ins and outs from 2022 summer window in full as Blues record £60m profit

Manchester City have concluded one of their busiest transfer windows in recent years by recording an impressive profit, despite spending over £100m on new players.

Erling Haaland is the headline signing, and was the first to be announced this summer for his £51m release clause from Borussia Dortmund. Kalvin Phillips followed from Leeds to bolster the midfield after Fernandinho's departure, while City have also strengthened their squad players with the arrivals of goalkeeper Stefan Ortega, left-back Sergio Gomez and deadline day signing Manuel Akanji.

Those arrivals have been facilitated with the high-profile sales of Raheem Sterling to Chelsea, and both Gabriel Jesus and Aleks Zinchenko to Arsenal. Those sales, along with over £30m of sales from the academy and more fees from sales of City Football Group players, mean that the Blues have managed an impressive £60m profit this summer.

Man City’s summer 2022 signings

Erling Haaland (Borussia Dortmund) £51.1m

Haaland was gushing about his new home when unveiled in June, saying: “There are so many world-class players in this squad and Pep is one of the greatest managers of all-time, so I believe I am in the right place to fulfil my ambitions.

“I want to score goals, win trophies and improve as a footballer and I am confident I can do that here.”

Kalvin Phillips (Leeds) £42m

Phillips put pen to paper in July and echoed the thoughts of City’s other summer signings, saying: “To be able to play under Pep and learn from him and his coaching staff as well as be part of such a fantastic squad is a prospect that I am incredibly excited about.

“City are a world-class club with world-class staff and facilities and it’s a dream come true to have joined the club.”

Manuel Akanji (Borussia Dortmund) £15.1m

Akanji, who signed a five-year deal at the Etihad after making 158 appearances for Dortmund, said he was excited to get going with Pep Guardiola's side.

"I am delighted to be here and can't wait to get started. City have been one of the best teams in Europe over the last few seasons. Pep Guardiola is an exceptional manager and this is an exceptional squad of players, so this is an exciting opportunity for me."

Sergio Gomez (Anderlecht) £11m

Director of Football Txiki Begiristain said of Gomez: “Over the past year, he has gained excellent experience playing in the Belgian League and in Europe with Anderlecht.

“We’re sure that he will bring additional quality to our squad both in defence and going forward and that he will only continue to develop and improve playing under Pep and his coaches.”

Ortega, who started all but one of Arminia Bielefeld’s Bundesliga matches last term, said the chance to join City was an opportunity he could not miss.
