Swansea City's Wilfried Bony

 Manchester City have completed the signing of striker
Wilfried Bony from Swansea City.
Bony, 26, signed a four-and-a-half year deal through 2019,
City said on their website.
"It's a great feeling for me, it's a big honour to be here and it's a
great challenge," Bony said.
"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."
Bony scored 34 goals in 70 matches after joining Swansea for a
club-record 12 million pounds from Dutch side Vitesse Arnhem in
2013. He led the Premier League with 20 goals in 2014.
"His goals record has been excellent since he came to England," City
manager Manuel Pellegrini said. "He adapted very quickly to the game
here and I think he will settle in at City quickly."
Bony will join City after completing duty with Ivory Coast at the
Africa Cup of Nations.
