It’s official: Manchester City have completed the signing of 17-year-old winger Jeremy Monga from Leicester City. The fee is £10m plus up to £2.5m in add-ons, with a sell-on clause included for Leicester, and the teenager has signed a contract running to June 2031 (per Sky Sports; deal details via The Athletic).
Monga is one of the most exciting prospects in English football. The England U19 international is the third-youngest player ever to appear in the Premier League, and last season he featured 30 times in all competitions for Leicester, contributing a goal and two assists.
His future was one of the most closely watched academy-level sagas of the window — Arsenal were strongly linked earlier in the summer, but it is City who have won the race, adding another elite teenager to their project for the years ahead.
