Spurs have been trying to patch a big hole after <strong>Son Heung-min\u2019s departure<\/strong>, and they also got hit by injuries to key attackers.

Reuters reported that City met a <strong>\u00a365 million<\/strong> release clause (according to British media reports) and signed the Ghanaian winger after tracking him for years. Guardiola praised his ability to play on both wings, use \u201cboth legs,\u201d and add pace and power up front.
