Manchester City have announced their first piece of transfer business ahead of the summer window.

Regardless whether or not they win a record fourth Premier League title in a row, the Blues are expected to make changes to their squad in the summer.

The treble winners have been linked with the likes of Bruno Guimaraes and Lucas Paqueta in recent times.

And while some departures are likely, one has already been confirmed by City.

Young midfielder Tommy Doyle has completed a permanent switch to Wolves after impressing on loan this season.

Doyle has played 30 times for the Molineux outfit after a temporary move that happened alongside Matheus Nunes signing for City.

Wolves had the option to purchase him outright and have now done so, with The Athletic reporting that they will pay City £4.3 million.

The 22-year-old will sign a four-year contract, with the option of an extra two.

However, the deal will not be official until July 1 and so Doyle is still ineligible to play against boyhood club City in this Saturday's evening kick-off at the Etihad Stadium.

The England Under 21 international, whose grandads Mike Doyle and Glyn Pardoe both played for City, will end a 14-year association with the club.

After coming through the ranks, he made just one appearance in the Premier League for City.

"He buys into who we are as a club and what we’re trying to create culturally within the group," Wolves sporting director Matt Hobbs said.

"He’s a great player to have for what we’re trying to achieve off the pitch and he gives us so much on the pitch, so he’s the exact type of player I think Wolves should be signing.

“If you look at the type of players we like to sign as a football club, they generally haven’t reached their ceiling yet and have loads more to come.

“Tommy is a fraction of the player he will become, with the more he gets used to the league and the greater his understanding gets. I’m really excited for now but also his future at Wolves.”

City inserted a 50% sell-on clause in the deal, while they also agreed a buy-back option.
