Brazilian winger signs five-year contract after joining from Troyes
Manchester City have completed the signing of Savinho from Troyes, from an initial fee in the region of £21m.
The Brazilian winger joins the Blues on a five-year deal that will see him stay at The Etihad until 2029.
The twenty-year-old spent last season on loan at Girona, scoring 11 goals and recording 10 assists, as the Catalan side qualified for the Chamions League.
“I’m so happy to be joining Manchester City, the Premier League champions and Club World Cup winners", he told mancity.com.
Everyone knows they are the best team in the world right now, so to be here is very exciting for me.
“I’m excited about the chance to work under Pep Guardiola, one of the greatest coaches ever, and someone I know will help me improve even more.
“I had an amazing time in Spain and I’m looking forward to a new challenge of playing in the Premier League and alongside some of the best players in the world.
“I can’t wait to meet the fans and my new team-mates and hopefully be a part of bringing more success to City.”
Director of Football Txiki Begiristain added: “Savinho is a very exciting player and I think the City fans are really going to enjoy watching him.
“What he achieved last season at Girona was remarkable and he is already a full Brazil international. He has a big role to play for Manchester City this season and beyond.
“We are totally confident in his ability. He is still young and has the potential to become even better, and everyone knows that Pep is the best at helping players develop even further.
“But he has already shown his huge quality and technical ability and is an exciting addition to our attacking area.”
