Why wouldn't it benefit City? He may effectively be very cheap to City: it might be that all or most of his wage will be paid by NYCFC.
He may not get a lot of game time but there could be situations where he is useful and his experience and attitude might be something for others to learn from.
If he does end up on loan with us and plays, he might well chip in a few goals in a side like ours.
I confess I am a bit surprised that he is being tipped to play for us, as opposed to just training with us, but the run of money on him suggests someone knows something: I couldn't see many people laying money down otherwise.
