Julian Alvarez sought advice from former Manchester City players before signing for the club, as he revealed details of his first conversation with new manager Pep Guardiola after sealing the transfer.
Alvarez's £14m signing was announced in January, before he was loaned back to River Plate until this week. Now en-route to Manchester, Alvarez has spoken to club media about his decision-making process when he first learned of City's interest.
As an Argentina international, Alvarez was able to turn to Sergio Aguero for advice on joining City, as well as former Blues Nicolas Otamendi and Willy Caballero.
