City have signed Switzerland Under-21 captain Gelson Fernandes from FC Sion for an undisclosed fee.
The 20-year-old midfielder is Sven-Goran Eriksson's second signing since taking over as Eastlands boss.
"He's the best young player in Switzerland," said Eriksson, who will take Fernandes on City's pre-season tour of Sweden.
Fernandes, who was also thought to be a target for Newcastle and Bolton, started 32 times for Swiss club Sion.
