Finally it is official as Manchester City have signed goalkeeper Claudio Bravo from Barcelona for
£15.4m plus add-ons on a four-year deal.
Bravo has a wealth of experience having won two back-to-back La Liga titles with Barcelona and successive Copa America triumphs with Chile with whom the 33-year old has won 106 caps and also the captain.
He won his 100th international cap for Chile in the Copa America final beating Argentina on penalties and is the first Chilean to win century of caps.
Before joining Barca, Bravo played in La Liga with Real Sociedad and remained with them for eight years, clocking up 237 starts.
He moved to Barcelona in 2014 and has won eight different titles in just two years with the Catalans, playing 75 games.
After joining Manchester City, Bravo said: "I'm very proud to be joining Manchester City. I know the club is building something very special and I hope I can be part of many successes in the coming years.
It is not easy to leave a club like Barcelona where I had two fantastic years, but the opportunity to work with Pep Guardiola was too good to refuse".
