Manchester City, a powerhouse in world football, has just secured a significant addition to their squad. The club confirmed the signing of 21-year-old Belgian international, Jeremy Doku, from Stade Rennais on a long-term deal on Thursday, August 24, 2023. This marks their third signing of the summer transfer window, following the acquisitions of Croatian talents Mateo Kovacic and Josko Gvardiol.
For Doku, the decision to join Manchester City was a no-brainer, given the club’s stellar performance in the previous season. Speaking about his move, Doku expressed his excitement: “This is a monumental day for me, both personally and professionally. Manchester City is the pinnacle of world football, and joining them is a dream come true for me and my family. I’m a young player with a lot to learn and improve, and working with Pep Guardiola and his coaching staff, alongside world-class players, is going to elevate my game to new heights.
The way City played last season was truly remarkable. Winning the Treble is the ultimate achievement in football, and they accomplished it. I can’t contain my enthusiasm about joining this team, and I’m eager to get started. Hopefully, I can bring joy to the fans.”
Doku boasts an impressive record at Stade Rennais, with 92 appearances across all competitions, contributing 12 goals and 10 assists. His addition to Manchester City’s roster is poised to make a significant impact on the club’s future endeavors.
