Manchester City target Georgio Samaras
|
Manchester City have completed the £6m signing of Greek striker Georgios Samaras from Heerenveen.
The 20-year-old completed his move on Monday night after agreeing personal terms and passing a medical.
Samaras will make his City debut in Wednesday's home Premiership clash with Newcastle providing his international clearance comes through in time.
The Greek forward is believed to have signed a four-and-a-half year deal with Stuart Pearce's side.
City previously offered only £3m for the Greek forward, who went on strike rather than return to training after Heerenveen had wanted nearer to £9m.
But they agreed a £6m fee with Heerenveen on Saturday night.
Samaras will be unveiled to the media at a press conference at the club's Carrington training ground on Tuesday morning.
