SVEN MAKES SECOND PURCHASE

Manchester City manager Sven-Goran Eriksson has made his second signing since taking charge by bringing in promising Swiss midfielder Gelson Fernandes.

The 20-year-old moves to Eastlands from FC Sion for undisclosed fee and follows in the footsteps of striker Rolando Bianchi, an £8.8million buy from Regina.

Fernandes made 32 starts for Sion last season and he is captain of Switzerland's Under-21 side.

Bianchi and Fernandes will both fly out to Sweden with the squad on Sunday for the club's pre-season tour. City are in action at League One Doncaster on Saturday afternoon.
