“City are the best team in England and, in Pep Guardiola, I have a chance to learn and develop under the most outstanding manager in world football,” said the 21-year-old, who was previously a Barcelona youth player.

City’s director of football Txiki Begiristain said Sergio Gomez was an “exciting young talent”.

“We’re sure that he will bring additional quality to our squad both in defence and going forward and that he will only continue to develop and improve playing under Pep and his coaches,” he said.
