Manchester City have announced the arrival of Dutch player Tijjani Reijnders, who has signed a five-year contract.

Manchester City have confirmed the transfer of Tijjani Reijnders, who has joined the club in a 46 million deal from AC Milan.

After the announcements of Algerian and Wolverhampton Wanderers' Rayan Ait-Nouri and French star Rayan Cherki, it's now Tijjani Reijnders who has committed himself to the sky blues.

A hectic opening to the summer transfer window it has been for Manchester City, who have been aiming to check these names off their list before the window shuts down for the upcoming FIFA Club World Cup, which gets underway this weekend.

They have gotten the job done by bringing in Reijinders, giving them a boost ahead of the new tournament, where they'll be aiming to claim silverware.

The Dutch player joins the Cityzens at the back of a campaign where he gained a 20 G/A in 54 appearances. This made his total in two seasons 104 caps and 19 goals.

"I am ecstatic to be signing for Manchester City. They are one of the biggest teams in the world, with the best coach and world-class players. They have won so many titles, and I want to help keep that going with a lot more success in the coming years."

"It's a dream come true to play in the Premier League. I am really looking forward to getting going, meeting the other players and showing Manchester City what I can do."
