WHAT HAPPENED?
Per RMC Sport, Sangare has penned a five-year contract with City after agreeing to leave PSG. The 18-year-old striker was prolific in the club's youth teams, scoring 42 times in 46 games for the U19s, but he has rejected the offer of a new deal in France in order to complete his move to the Premier League, days after the club secured a deal for Norway teenager Sverre Nypan.
