Manchester City midfielder Bruno Zuculini scores a goal against the Sporting KC in the first half at Sporting Park, Kansas City, July 23, 2014. — Reuters picLONDON, Aug 9 — Manchester City completed their swoop for Argentine midfielder Bruno Zuculini from Racing Club yesterday.
Although Zuculini has now officially sealed his move, the Argentina Under-20 international had already been part of City’s pre-season tours of Scotland and the United States and scored in the Premier League champions’ friendly against Kansas City.
The 21-year-old, who is available for tomorrow’s Community Shield against Arsenal, said he can’t wait to sample life at a major club after leaving Argentine team Racing for a fee reported to be in the region of £3 million (RM16 million).
“I’m very excited about the future. I am looking forward to the experiences which this move will bring and to improving myself as a player,” he told City’s website. — AFP
