Manchester City has secured the signing of Abdukodir Khusanov from RC Lens in a deal valued at £33 million.

The central defender from Uzbekistan has committed to a four-and-a-half-year contract with Pep Guardiola’s team as they aim to recover from a challenging start to the season.

Speaking to the club website, Khusanov said: ‘I’m absolutely delighted to be joining Manchester City, a club that I have enjoyed watching for a long time. 

‘This squad is full of the best players in the world, and I can’t wait to meet them and play alongside them.

‘And of course, Pep Guardiola is one of the greatest coaches ever and I am so excited to learn from him and improve my game even more.

‘This is a very proud moment for me and my family to be joining a great Club like Manchester City and I’m more than ready for this challenge.’ 

The 20-year-old becomes the first Uzbek player to ever feature in the Premier League.

Director of Football Txiki Begiristain added: ‘We are very happy that he has joined us and we are all very excited about what he will bring.

‘For such a young defender, Abdukodir is already very intelligent, as well as being strong, aggressive and extremely quick.

‘Working with Pep will only make him better and, speaking to him, he is determined to keep improving.

‘He is a really exciting signing as we aim to keep progressing to maintain one of the best squads in Europe.’
