hmmmmmmmmmm
City, who are in desperate need of a new striker, signed another defender yesterday!!
We've only got Garrido, Ball, Onuoha, Dunne, Richards, Ben Haim and Corluka to play there!
Still, this guy is good, I remember last year Arsenal and yoonighted were sniffing round him, 22 years old, 23 caps for Belgium already, maybe a good prospect maybe Ferocious was out there finalising the deal for Thaksin?
Manchester City can confirm the signing of Belgian international defender Vincent Kompany from Bundesliga side Hamburg SV on a four-year deal for an undisclosed fee.
The 22-year-old already has over 20 caps for his country, as well as appearances at U17, 18 and 21 level and was touted for a move to the Premier League when leaving his first club Anderlecht in 2006 before opting to join Hamburg.
He has recently been with the Belgian side at the Olympic Games and left his country’s side before their semi final defeat against Nigeria to return for the season opening 2-2 draw with Bayern Munich last weekend.
Kompany can, and often has, played as a defensive midfielder for the Bundesliga giants and becomes Mark Hughes’ third signing for the Club.
It is hoped Vincent will receive all the relevant clearance to be able to feature in Sunday's home clash with West Ham United.
