Manchester City has affirmed the signing of Sergio Gomez from Anderlecht.

The Spain’s Under-21 defender moves to the Etihad Stadium on a four-year deal for a fee of 13m euros (£11m) plus add-ons.

Gomez has a magnificent record at an underage stage for Spain.

He passed through the Barcelona academy before playing under former City captain Vincent Kompany at the Belgian club.

Gomez has paid tribute to the influence of Kompany on his career so far.

“It was a pride working with him from the first day… He was a role model for everybody. To me, it was an honour working with him and I’m very grateful to him for everything that happened last season at Anderlecht,” he stated.

City director of football Txiki Begiristain said that “Sergio’s development in recent seasons has been very impressive – he is an accomplished defender with great potential.

“We’re sure that he will bring additional quality to our squad.’’
