Manchester City are set to complete the £11m signing of defender Sergio Gomez from Anderlecht

Manchester City have completed the signing of Anderlecht left-back Sergio Gomez for £11million, rising to £16m, with a 15 percent sell-on fee. 

But despite signing the Spanish defender City remain open to adding another left-back before the window closes. 

The departure of versatile midfielder Oleksandr Zinchenko to Arsenal has left City short with regards to back-up options in that position, with Joao Cancelo often deployed as an inverted left-back. 

But Pep Guardiola may look to add another left-back before the end of the transfer window

The reigning Premier League champions had previously been strong suitors for Marc Cucurella, but lost out to Chelsea who signed him from Brighton for £63m.

Gomez played under City legend Vincent Kompany for two seasons in Belgium

Having developed at Barcelona‘s La Masia academy, Gomez joined Borussia Dortmund in 2018 before moving on to Anderlecht. 

There have been suggestions that Gomez could be loaned out by City, but a final decision has yet to be made.

Gomez, who is known for his energy and assist record, made 49 appearances last season, scoring seven goals and assisting on 15 occasions, as he helped Anderlecht finish third in the league.

While at Anderlecht he worked with former City legend Vincent Kompany, who is now in charge of Burnley.

So far in this transfer window, Guardiola’s side have signed Erling Haaland, Kalvin Phillips and Stefan Ortega. 

City commenced their Premier League campaign with a 2-0 win against West Ham and will take on Bournemouth in their next fixture.
