Manchester City complete transfer for Brazil winger Savio

Manchester City have completed a deal for 20-year-old Brazil winger Sávio on a five-year-deal, the club confirmed on Thursday.

City have paid an initial transfer fee of €25 million ($27.3m), plus a potential €15m ($16.4m) in add-ons.

Sávio joins City from French side Troyes after loan spells at PSV Eindhoven and Girona.

Both Troyes and Girona are part of the City Football Group (CFG), which is headed by Manchester City.

I am so happy to be joining Manchester City, the Premier League champions and Club World Cup winners," Sávio said.

"Everyone knows they are the best team in the world right now, so to be here is very exciting for me.
