Manchester City have announced the signing of Sergio Gomez from Anderlecht.

The Spanish left-back, 21, joins the reigning Premier League champions in a deal thought to be worth an initial £11million, before add-ons.

Gomez is City’s fourth signing of the summer after Erling Haaland, Stefan Ortega and Kalvin Phillips arrived to bolster Pep Guardiola’s squad.

A new left-back had long been sought by the club, who missed out on a deal for Marc Cucurella earlier in the summer before the Spaniard signed for Chelsea.

“I am incredibly proud and happy to have joined Manchester City,” Gomez said. “City are the best team in England and in Pep Guardiola I have a chance to learn and develop under the most outstanding manager in world football.

“To be able to be part of this club is a dream come true for me and something any young player would aspire to.

“The number of trophies City have won over the past few years has been incredible and the style of football the team plays under Pep is the most exciting in Europe. Playing for and being guided by Pep and his coaches is going to be very special.

“I’ve heard so much about the City fans and how passionate they are, so I can’t wait to get started and to try and help the Club achieve even more.”
