Manchester City sign Gvardiol from Leipzig for reported €90M fee
Manchester City completed their long-awaited swoop for top transfer target Josko Gvardiol, the Premier League club announced on Saturday.
The 21-year-old defender joins from RB Leipzig after signing a five-year contract. The treble winners agreed a transfer fee worth €90 million (£77 million) to seal the deal, according to Simon Stone of BBC Sport.
“I have always dreamed of one day playing in England and to be doing so now with Manchester City – after the season they have just had – is a real honor for me,” Gvardiol said after joining the reigning Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League winners. “Anyone who saw Manchester City play last season knows they are the best team in the world. To win the treble says everything you need to know about the quality this team has.”
“To have the chance to work with Pep Guardiola, too, will be amazing for me,”
