Manchester City have revealed that they have signed PEC Zwolle youngster Philippe Sandler.
The Premier League champions have only made one first-team signing this summer, with Riyad Mahrez joining from Leicester City, but Sandler arrives at the Etihad Stadium with the potential to be involved in the upcoming campaign.
The 21-year-old has made his name as a centre-back, but City could use the Dutchman as backup in the holding-midfield role should they not make another addition over the next 10 days.
Sandler leaves Zwolle having made a total of 30 starts in the first team, with 22 starts coming in the Eredivisie last season.
The player has also represented the Netherlands at Under-20 level.
