City have completed the signing of Wilfried Bony from Swansea City.

The 26-year-old striker has agreed terms on a four and a half year deal which will keep him at the Etihad Stadium until the end of the 2018/19 season.

He will wear the number 14 shirt.

The Ivory Coast international won’t be available to make his City debut until after the Africa Cup of Nations which runs from Saturday through to 8 February, though both he and Yaya Toure could return to the champions slightly earlier if The Elephants are eliminated from the competition before the final.

Bony has impressed for the Swans since signing for the South Wales club from Dutch side Vitesse in 2013.

He has scored 34 goals in 70 matches for the Swans and bagged three in his last two games against City including a brace in the 3-2 New Year’s Day victory for the Blues at The Liberty Stadium and his superb effort in City’s 2-1 win at the Etihad Stadium in November.
