"Mind blown!" Man City defender Manuel Akanji shows off his incredible maths skills

Manuel Akanji has revealed how he became so good at mathematics as the Manchester City defender opened up on his start to life at the Etihad Stadium.

The Swiss defender has been showing off his maths skills with Akanji impressive at calculations and quick thinking when the pressure is on. It is a skill that he is proud of, and he has been demonstrating that ability in an interview as the centre-back was able to answer complex maths questions rather easily.

It sums up Akanji's impressive start at City, with the centre-back slotting into the side rather comfortably as question marks were raised upon his arrival from Borussia Dortmund on deadline day. Aside from missing the 3-0 win at Wolves due to the birth of his second child, Akanji has played in every game that he was available for since signing, before being benched against Copenhagen in midweek.
