Sagna seals Man City switch

Bacary Sagna has completed his free transfer from Arsenal to Manchester City, according to the Mail Online.

The full-back, who was part of the side that lifted the FA Cup at Wembley on Saturday afternoon, had been linked with a move to the Etihad Stadium for some time, with the rumours gathering pace as his contract with the Gunners drew to a close.

Sagna moved to North London from Auxerre in the summer of 2007, and he went on to make 284 appearances in all competitions under Arsene Wenger, scoring five goals.

He is the fifth player to move from Arsenal to City in the past five years, after Gael Clichy, Kolo Toure, Emmanuel Adebayor and Samir Nasri.

Manuel Pellegrini’s men clinched the Premier League title on the final day of the season with victory over West Ham United, and they can be backed at 7/4 to retain the championship next season.
