Re: City Sign Nils Zander

Manchester City boss Mark Hughes has made his first signing for next season - German youth international star Nils Zander.

City have struck an agreement with Schalke 04 for the 16-year-old left back who also plays for the national youth team.

Zander will head for City in the summer and be part of their youth set-up, but he is tipped to be knocking on the first-team door sooner rather than later - and is in the brink of the full Schalke side

Re: City Sign Nils Zander

I thought that you couldn't get Germans until they were 18?

He's a City player now so posts moved in to main forum as it's no longer transfer speculation :-)

is a blue, is a blue!

16 year old fullback signed from Shalke.

Anyone know anything about him?

YES...His name and hair is similar to Ned Flanders *hmmm makes you think doesn't it*

One Ned Flanders
Theres only one Ned Flanders....

Germans are good at penalties.

We are likely to be getting further in cup competitions and could be involved in more penalty shoot-outs. Very astute move from Hughes.

I like his first name.could be a good omen...plenty of clean sheets against us then.

Or maybe not...

..He was in the german team beat on pens in a youth cup by England last month, think he missed a pen too.
