Manchester City’s promised summer spending has begun with the agreement of a fee for Milan’s Tijjani Reijnders. The 26-year-old midfielder will cost €55m (£46.3m) and has agreed personal terms for a five-year contract.
The Netherlands international will become the first of a number of signings the club chair, Khaldoon al‑Mubarak, pledged before City take part in the Club World Cup. A special transfer window has been opened for Fifa’s new competition.
