Manchester City's final deal of the 2024 summer transfer window has been completed with Joel Ndala heading out
Manchester City youngster Joel Ndala has completed a loan move to PSV that comes with an obligation to buy next summer.
Ndala, 18, impressed in the City academy and was called up to the first team squad for the trip to the Club World Cup last December and then the tour of the United States this summer. His potential alerted a host of clubs this summer who were willing to offer the teenager senior football more quickly than he would get it at the Etihad, and PSV have won the race.
City will not see any money for Ndala this year but will bank a fee next summer when the loan turns into a compulsory purchase. The deal is up to £8.4m , with the initial fee understood to be around £5.9m ; there is also a 20 per cent sell-on clause that the Blues could benefit from in the future.READ MORE: Inside Erling Haaland's stunning start to Man City season
Ndala's initial loan means that the sales this summer will fall just short of a club record, just £3m less than the £179m that City received last year. However, it does guarantee money for the next financial year and the money received for the winger adds to the £25m the club will receive when Yan Couto's move to Dortmund is made permanent.
Pep Guardiola indicated that City may need to spend more next summer after an outlay of just £35m in this transfer window. "Some years you have to be more active in the transfer market, sometimes it isn’t necessary," he said last week. I gave my opinion to the club, the club made their opinion and together that maybe in the future you have to do more."
