City snap up Dabo

In a welcome move - but one which was a little bit of a surprise given previous developments, City announced the signing of Ousmane Dabo on a three-year deal yesterday.

Stuart Pearce commenting:

"Ousmane is a vastly experienced holding midfield player, and gives us more options. I am delighted he is joining us."

Whilst living upto the previous high standards of new signing cliches, Dabo offered us:

“I had many offers but I chose City because it’s a big club with a big history.
I played against City in a friendly here two years ago and when I saw how the fans were here, I was in love!”
