Manchester City have confirmed the signing of Gianluigi Donnarumma from Paris Saint-Germain.
Despite already adding James Trafford to their ranks this summer, Pep Guardiola has opted to add another goalkeeper after a shaky start to life at the Etihad for the former Burnley man.
Long-standing number one Ederson signed for Fenerbahce on Tuesday morning.
The 26-year-old Donnarumma has signed a long-term contract and cost the Cityzens nearly €40million.
He joins the likes of Trafford Tiijani Reijnders, Rayan Cherki and Rayan Ait Nouri as new additions at City.
Donnarumma, who will wear the number 99 shirt at City, was part of the PSG team which won the Champions League last season, and was in goal for Italy when they won Euro 2020.
“To have signed for Manchester City is such a special and proud moment for me,” he said.
“I am joining a squad packed with world-class talent and a team led by the one of the greatest managers in the history of football in Pep Guardiola. This is a club every player in world football would love to join.
“I have admired watching Manchester City for many years – so to now be able to play for the club is a huge honour and a privilege. I cannot wait to meet my new team-mates, the staff and the fans.
“Playing at the Etihad Stadium will be very, very special for me. I am very excited for what lies ahead and can promise that I will give absolutely everything to try and help the club achieve even more success.”
