OFFICIAL: Eliaquim Mangala signs for Manchester City

Manchester City have announced the signing of Eliaquim Mangala from FC Porto for £32m.

The 23-year old central defender becomes the sixth signing of the summer, and will quickly re-join his old Porto teammate Fernando at the Etihad Stadium. He will wear the no.20 shirt and has signed a five-year contract with City.

The Paris-born defender said:  “City is a top club in Europe. For me, it was an important step to leave Porto and join Manchester City in order to continue my progress. I want to win titles and I believe I can do this. I am ambitious and this is why I am here.
