“I am very happy to be part of this club. As a child I always dreamed of playing in Europe, in the best clubs, in the best leagues. That is why it is a privilege to be here. I have played in different attacking positions, but my specialty is finding space up front, where I am also a good finisher. I have followed the City games and they have a style that I like and with which I identify, ”said the player himself upon his arrival at the club in the official Manchester City media.
