Man City sign teenager Monga from Leicester for £10m

Manchester City have completed the signing of Jeremy Monga from Leicester City.

The winger, who turned 17 on Friday, has signed a five-year contract until the summer of 2031 and joins for a fee of £10m plus add-ons, Sky Sports News understands.

Monga is the third-youngest player to ever play in the Premier League and Leicester's second-youngest appearance maker, having made his top-flight debut against Newcastle United in April 2025 aged just 15 years and 271 days.

The England U19 international played 30 times in all competitions for Leicester in 2025/26, contributing one goal and two assists. In total he made 37 senior appearances for the Foxes, including seven in the Premier League.

"When I became aware that Manchester City were interested, I knew instantly this was the right choice for me," Monga told City's website.

"For any young footballer, to become part of this amazing club is a dream come true. This has been the best club in England over the past 10 years. And it has also handed opportunities to players from the Academy like Phil Foden and Nico O'Reilly which shows that the pathway is there.

"It is a privilege to be here, and I'm delighted to have joined."

Monga becomes new head coach Enzo Maresca's second signing of the summer after Elliott Anderson joined from Nottingham Forest for £116m.

'We feel he is only going to continue to improve'

Meanwhile, City director of football Hugo Viana added: "Jeremy is an exciting player who has already made huge strides in his young career.

"We were already very aware of him as a club and we have seen his ability first-hand from his time at Leicester. At 17 years old, we feel he is only going to continue to improve and that this is the correct next step in his career.

"We look forward to supporting him on every step in his journey."
