City sign Ante Palaversa

Midfielder, Ante Palaversa has completed a move to Manchester City on Thursday after signing for the club from a Croatian side, Hajduk Split on loan.

Palaversa joined the Premier League holders for a reported fee of £7million after he completed a medical in Manchester earlier this week.

The 18-year-old will be sent back to Hadjuk on loan until 2020, but Manchester City have the option to recall him in January of the same year.

Speaking after the transfer was made official on Thursday, the Croatian youngster told the club’s official website: “Thanks to Manchester City for the trust.

“There is still a lot of work ahead of me.

“I have not yet shown all I can and I hope to play for Hajduk to justify the great trust I have received from England’s champions.”
