Clichy es Ciudadano

Gael Clichy cerró su traspaso al  Manchester City este lunes y el club de Manchester hizo oficial su contratación. El lateral izquierdo abandona el Arsenal por una cifra muy próxima a los ocho millones de euros y será jugador del City las cuatro próximas temporadas.

Clichy llega a los 'citizens' con la intención de ganarse un puesto en el once para la próxima temporada en detrimento de Kolarov. El lateral francés es el primero de lo que se prevé como una salida en masa de jugadores del Arsenal. Junto al defensa galo podrían salir del Emirates Stadium

Esto a dicho Clichy:

Speaking of his move to Eastlands, Clichy said: “I’m really happy to be joining such a great club. I hope I can add to the quality we already have here because we have a fantastic squad who I believe will continue to get better.

“I can’t wait to get started and I think anything is possible with this team.”

Clichy also revealed that in joining the Blues, he will be re-joining two of his best friends in football.

“When I first came to England, it was Kolo Toure and Patrick Vieira who took me under their wing and really looked after me,” he said.

“Kolo would pick me up and drop me at home and his wife used to cook meals for me. Patrick was always there to offer me advice so it’s wonderful to be back and at the same club they are at.”
