Manchester City complete signing of Wolves defender Rayan Ait Nouri for £36.3m

Manchester City have completed the signing of  Wolves left-back Rayan Ait Nouri for £36.3m.

The 23-year-old has signed a five-year contract that will keep him at the club until the summer of 2030 for an initial fee of £31m, with £5.3m in add-ons.

The Algeria international has joined Pep Guardiola’s side in time to be part of their Club World Cup squad.

Ait Nouri told the club’s official website: “I am incredibly happy and honoured to have joined Manchester City.

“City are one of the biggest clubs in the world and the chance to play for the club is a dream come true.

“I am also excited about working with and learning from Pep and his coaching team and getting to train and play alongside such a world class group of players.

“Joining City is also a very proud moment for my family too. Now I can’t wait to get started and to play in front of our supporters.”

Ait Nouri becomes City’s first major signing of the summer, with AC Milan midfielder Tijjani Reijnders and Lyon playmaker Rayan Cherki also set to join.

City have agreed a £34m deal for Cherki and are aiming to complete a medical and tie up personal terms with the player in time for him to be registered for the Club World Cup.

Reijnders, meanwhile, is expected to sign a five-year deal at the Etihad after City agreed a £46.3m deal with AC Milan.
