Transfer deadline day: Liverpool to sign Gravenberch, Bayindir joins Manchester United – live
The Guardian says Done deal: Manchester City sign Nunes for £53m
“Manchester City are delighted to announce the signing of Matheus Nunes from Wolverhampton Wanderers on a five-year deal.”
He becomes their fourth major signing of the summer.
The 25-year-old has signed a five-year contract and joins Josko Gvardiol, a defender, midfielder, Mateo Kovacic, and Jeremy Doku, a wide player.
Nunes said: “I’m so happy to be joining Manchester City, the Champions of Europe and a club I’ve admired for a long time. The opportunity to work under Pep Guardiola, one of the greatest managers ever, and alongside some of the best players in the world was something I simply couldn’t turn down.”
His transfer follows Nunes’s refusing to train at Wolves to force the move through.
