Manchester City have agreed a deal to sign Argentina goalkeeper Geronimo Rulli from Marseille for ÂŁ1.7m.

The 34-year-old returns to Etihad Stadium - where he spent the 2016-17 season without making a first-team appearance - and has signed a two-year deal.

Rulli famously scored a penalty in Villarreal's 2021 Europa League final victory over Manchester United, before denying opposite number David de Gea to decide the marathon shootout.

He has won eight caps for Argentina and was part of the squad that won the 2022 World Cup and 2024 Copa America.

Rulli has also had spells at clubs around Europe including Real Sociedad, Montpellier and Ajax.
