Manuel Akanji | City close to £15m agreement, 5 year contract

[Alan Harper's Tash]

With this signing we can move Stones to rb and move Kyle to rw or cm.

Why would we want to do that?!

We would definitely benefit from another experienced centre back, especially with such a fixture congestion thanks to those corrupt Fifa idiots screwing up the World Cup

Most had heard of Diaz though

Lazy and cheap reply to a typo, you could at least have made it humorous like the other replies.

Still raw lol, he's 27.

Yes because he's been taught by two of the worst defence coaches ever at Dortmund.

As someone that watches Dortmund regularly

He's decent best attribute is his pace incredibly quick, good with both feet. Did have a few injury scares under Rose but he's a unit strong and quick. Dortmund wanted him to stay but he wanted alot more money than they were offering so Dortmund went out and signed a new cb.

He's got quality reminds me alot of rudiger just not a arse hole. Can play LCB and RCB so Pep will love him a few mistakes here and there but they can be ironed out

He's Ridiculously quick for a cb

Fast as f….. Can tackle. Scores goals. Not scared of getting stuck in. What’s not to like?

Raw at 27?

VVD was 26 when Liverpool signed him...Not saying Akanji can become world class, but some players make big steps later in their career.

Anyway, Akanji would normally cost 40m +, we are signing him for 15m. Excellent buisness (at least on paper).

This is like Matip case
