Manchester City have confirmed the signing of Sergio Gomez from Anderlecht to add to Pep Guardiola's full-back options.
Gomez joins the Premier League champions in an £11million switch plus add-ons to provide competition for places, having agreed a four-year deal at the Etihad Stadium.
Throughout the summer the 21-year-old has been a target for City and was initially earmarked as a development player who could be sent out on loan.
However, following the failed pursuit of Brighton's Marc Cucurella - who departed for Chelsea - as well as Wovles' Rayan Ait-Nouri and Borussia Dortmund's Raphael Guerreiro, it is now felt at the club that Gomez could actually make his mark at the Etihad Stadium this term.
