Manchester City confirm the signing of striker Wilfried Bony from Swansea City.

Manchester City have confirmed the signing of striker Wilfried Bony from Swansea City on a four-and-a-half-year deal.

The 26-year-old is understood to have joined the Premier League champions for around £28m.

Bony, who is currently preparing for the Africa Cup of Nations with the Ivory Coast, moved to Swansea from Dutch side Vitesse in 2013.

The forward has scored 36 goals in 73 appearances for the Swans.

"It's a great feeling for me, it's a big honour to be here and it's a great challenge," he told Manchester City's official website. "As a player it's always good to be part of one of the biggest clubs in the world and it's a good opportunity for me to be in that situation now – I'm really proud.

"I felt excited to wait for this moment and now it's come, it's fantastic. I think it's a great decision for me - Manchester City is in the Champions League. It's a motivation for me to give my maximum to be in that place. City is a big club with great players with a lot of experience; I believe we can do it."

Bony will wear shirt number 14 for the Blues.
