Porto's Fernando joins City

London - Premier League champions Manchester City have completed the signing of defensive midfielder Fernando from Porto.

Porto issued a statement to the Portuguese Securities Market Commission (CMVM) late on Wednesday, saying a deal worth £12 million had been struck between the two clubs.

"I am so happy to finally be joining Manchester City," Fernando told City's website.

"I know there was talk of me possibly signing last January so I am delighted that the deal has now been done and that I am a City player."
