Manchester City have completed the signing of Sergio Gomez, potentially concluding their transfer business for the summer.
Gomez, 21, has joined City for 13 million euros (£11m) plus add-ons and will stay to compete with Joao Cancelo for the left-back spot after the initial plan was for him to possibly go out on loan. He will wear the number 21 shirt and has signed a four year contract.
However, after assessing the market and refusing to pay Brighton's asking price for £62m-rated Marc Cucurella, Pep Guardiola says City have decided to keep Gomez in the squad this year rather than sign another senior full-back. Explaining the decision to move for Gomez, Director of Football Txiki Begiristain said that he will add to the quality to City's defensive ranks and has been partly signed for his potential.
