Manchester City have continued their defender spending spree with the arrival of Benjamin Mendy from Monaco.

The left-back has signed a five-year deal after joining for a reported fee of around £50million, becoming Pep Guardiola's third full-back arrival in 10 days after Kyle Walker from Tottenham and Danilo from Real Madrid.

Chelsea were also interested in Mendy, and were willing to pay a similar fee after missing out on Danilo, but will now focus on alternative options such as Southampton pair Ryan Bertrand and Cedric Soares.

"I am absolutely delighted to be joining Manchester City," Mendy told City's official website. "They are one of Europe’s leading Clubs and in Pep Guardiola they have a manager committed to playing attacking football.

"I am sure that over the next few years we will be successful." Chelsea retain an interest in Alex Sandro, but face a tougher task to lure him away from Juventus following Leonardo Bonucci's move to AC Milan

This Guardiola dude is planning complete overhaul for his defence line.. The season Tottenham sold Bale and tried it, they regretted it.
Epl is too tough for u to just influx new set of players from a different league at once into a team, they'll all be strugling to adapt for a whole season.

man city are really prepared for world war 3

307 million pound for defense alone?
Is man city preparing for world war 111?

Over £50m to sign a defender just to kick the round leather object for 65 mins taking into consideration 15 mins half-time break...

This guy is out to build the wall of Jericho for his defence but then again this is EPL... It must surely fall.

d same dude signed 8 players b4 d beginning of last season, only John stones managed 50% performance. we didn't c d rest.nolito that showed initial gra gra fizzled out and has been shipped to sevilla. D remaining six, didnt even c them. Now he spent like 120million on just 3 defenders.in fact, man city must not concede any goal next season

The most expensive defender ever.
