Man City agree deal to sign Rayan Ait-Nouri

Manchester City have struck a deal with Wolves for full-back Rayan Ait-Nouri.

The Cityzens are in the process of revamping Pep Guardiola’s side after one of the poorest seasons in his illustrious managerial career. Already in January, Man City shelled out over €200 million on new recruits to add fresh faces to an ageing squad.

This spending is showing no signs of slowing down, and the Premier League giants are currently in talks over three deals. Tijjani Reijnders is set to join from AC Milan in a deal potentially worth in excess of €70 million. He will have his medical on Sunday.

Additionally, negotiations are taking place to bring French wonderkid Rayan Cherki to the Etihad. After his thunderous debut for Les Bleus, he is set to be rewarded with a move to England. Personal terms have been agreed, but talks over a fee are still taking place with Lyon.

Finally, there is Wolves left-back Rayan Ait-Nouri, who is now increasingly likely to become Guardiola’s first summer signing.

Man City agree Ait-Nouri deal

According to Ben Jacobs and Sky Sports, Man City have now agreed a deal with Wolves to sign the Algeria international. The Cityzens will part with €37m upfront and a potential further €6m in bonuses.

Ait-Nouri has already settled on personal terms with the Manchester outfit, and he even completed his medical earlier on Saturday. This means that his arrival could be announced as early as Sunday.

The 24-year-old will sign a five-year deal at Man City after several impressive seasons at Wolves. His relatively affordable price and versatility made him a hugely attractive commodity this summer.

Ait-Nouri has vast experience playing as a full-back and wing-back, but he can also feature in midfield and as an out-and-out winger. He will provide Guardiola with the tactical flexibility he so loves.
