London, June 10 (Reporter) Manchester City has completed the signing of Algerian left-back Rayan Ait Nouri from Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Ait Nouri has agreed a five-year contract after passing a medical over the weekend and will cost City 31 million pounds (42 million U.S. dollars).
"Manchester City is delighted to announce the signing of Rayan Ait Nouri from Wolverhampton Wanderers. The 24-year-old left-back has penned a five-year deal at the Etihad Stadium, meaning he will remain at the club until the summer of 2030," informed the Man City website on Monday.
"It was an easy decision. My choice was Manchester City in the beginning - what I said with my family, I want to play for this team - I like how they play. I am very happy to be here - it is a big pleasure for me," said Ait Nouri.
"We know the team and they have shown the last few years they were the best team in the world. The players are amazing and the coach also - it will be a pleasure to train with Pep Guardiola.
"I have come here to learn and show also what I can do, and I will give my best," he added.
