Angelino Signs 4-Year Contract to Transfer to Manchester City from PSV Eindhoven

Manchester City signed former defender Angelino from PSV Eindhoven on a four-year deal on Wednesday.

The Premier League champions announced the Spaniard will return to the Etihad Stadium after 12 months with the Dutch club.

The 22-year-old left-back made 34 league appearances for PSV, scoring one goal and providing 10 assists.

City's official website confirmed the capture, with the player explaining his delight at moving back to England.

"I am thrilled to have rejoined City, a side playing incredible football under Pep Guardiola. Watching them while playing in Holland has been a pleasure. 

"City's performances over the last two seasons have been incredible and I am very excited about returning and contributing to the club's bid for more success.

"I believe my own game can develop under Pep's management and I am very confident that the club will go from strength to strength over the next few years."

Angelino initially signed for City in 2014 after spending his formative years with Deportivo La Coruna.

The full-back spent loan spells at New York City, Girona, Mallorca and NAC Breda before agreeing to a permanent transfer to PSV in 2017. He experienced a breakout campaign last term, with his form persuading Guardiola to think again.

Per City's website, Director of Football Txiki Begiristain welcomed his countryman back into the fold:

"Angelino is a hugely talented young player and is an accomplished defender with great potential. Over the past year, he has gained excellent experience playing in the Eredivisie and the Champions League with PSV Eindhoven. We're sure that he will bring additional defensive quality to our squad."

Angelino will battle with Oleksandr Zinchenko for the left-back berth at City. Zinchenko has been given the No. 11 shirt for next season, suggesting he could be used in more advanced positions on the wing.
