Nicolas Otamendi is unveiled as a Benfica player with the Argentinian joining for £13m after ending five-year spell at Manchester City as he vows to defend the club 'to the death'

Nicolas Otamendi has been unveiled at Benfica after he brought his five-year spell at Manchester City to an end.

The Argentinian has joined the Portuguese outfit in a £13million deal after helping the Sky Blues to a hugely successful period as he won seven trophies during his time at the club.

Defender Ruben Dias has gone the other way, with City confirming his arrival from Benfica on Tuesday in a club-record £64m move. Otamendi had fallen down the pecking order under Pep Guardiola and has now embarked on a new chapter after being shown off to the Portuguese media.
