Manchester City have completed their second signing of the summer after announcing the £13.8m capture of Spain and Celta Vigo forward Nolito on four-year deal
Pep Guardiola handed Nolito his Barcelona debut back in 2010 and was keen to recruit his countryman when he became aware that his former club were wavering in their interest.
Nolito joined Barca in 2008 to play for the B-team but was called up for the first team two seasons later, coming on for Pedro in a Copa del Rey game.
Nolito went to Benfica in 2011 where he made a goalscoring start with two goals against Trabzonspor in the preliminary round of the Champions League.
Nolito has been at Celta Vigo since 2013, where he scored 39 goals in 103 appearances.
