Man City sign Fernandez, Ndiaye as Premier League clubs set new spending record

Manchester City made record-breaking transfers on deadline day, signing Argentine defender Enzo Fernandez for £125 million from Chelsea and Senegal forward Iliman Ndiaye for £65 million from Everton. The Premier League champions aimed to bolster their midfield and forward options for a potential Premier League title win. Fernandez, previously a Chelsea player under manager Enzo Maresca, has been linked with a move to City for months.

Both transfers surpassed previous record fees, with the Argentine fee matching the British transfer record Liverpool paid for Alexander Isak last year. City also added Senegal forward Ndiaye to their squad.
