Manchester City have completed the signing of attacking midfielder Rayan Cherki from Lyon before the first of this summer’s transfer deadlines.<\/b><\/p>\n

City will pay an initial fee of \u00a330.45m, and Cherki has signed a five-year deal until 2030.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old will be able to play for City at the Club World Cup, which begins in the United States on 14 June.<\/p>\n

Cherki has already made almost 200 appearances for Lyon and has scored once in his two caps for France.<\/p>\n

“This is a dream for me,” said Cherki. “Honestly, to be joining a club like Manchester City and have the opportunity to make the next step in my career here is something very, very special.”<\/p>\n

He is City’s third signing in two days, with coach Pep Guardiola having brought in Algeria left-back Rayan Ait-Nouri<\/a> from Wolves for \u00a331m on Monday, followed by back-up goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli from Chelsea earlier on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Cherki made his senior debut for Lyon aged 16 in October 2019 and leaves the club having claimed 29 goals and 45 assists in 185 games.<\/p>\n

“I have worked so hard for this all my life,” Cherki added. “I love this sport, and I can’t wait to develop further here in Manchester with Pep and his backroom staff.<\/p>\n

“The responsibility to help the team continue winning is something I want to embrace. I would only leave Lyon for a project I really believe in and everything at City suggests I can develop my game and help the team be successful in the future.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
