Manchester City target Georgio Samaras
Manchester City have completed the �6m signing of Greek striker Georgios Samaras from Heerenveen.

The 20-year-old completed his move on Monday night after agreeing personal terms and passing a medical.

Samaras will make his City debut in Wednesday's home Premiership clash with Newcastle providing his international clearance comes through in time.

The Greek forward is believed to have signed a four-and-a-half year deal with Stuart Pearce's side.

City previously offered only �3m for the Greek forward, who went on strike rather than return to training after Heerenveen had wanted nearer to �9m.

But they agreed a �6m fee with Heerenveen on Saturday night.

Samaras will be unveiled to the media at a press conference at the club's Carrington training ground on Tuesday morning.
