from Celta Vigo on their official website.
The 29-year-old impressed in La Liga last season and with Spain at
this summer’s European Championships
City have confirmed that Nolito
has signed a four-year deal with the club, and becomes Pep Guardiola’s third
signing of the summer, following Ilkay Gundogan and Aaron Mooy.
The Spaniard, who will take the
number 9 shirt, said: ‘I’ll try to bring as much as I possibly can. I’ll do
everything that the manager asks of me, try my absolute best and do everything
I can to try to repeat the form I’ve shown throughout my career at various
clubs.
‘It’s just about trying to play my
normal game and let’s hope that I can help Manchester City to win games.
‘I think that Pep Guardiola is one
of the best managers in the world. He knows a lot about the game and he’s going
to help me progress as a player and I’m sure he’ll get the best out of me.
