“This is a fantastic move for me,” Ortega told the club’s website. “Manchester City are an amazing team, a squad with world-class quality in every area. To be given the chance to join this group of players and help continue the club’s success is a dream for me.

“I have enjoyed my time in Germany and I want to thank Arminia Bielefeld for their support. But this new challenge of coming to City and playing in the Premier League is too good for me to ignore.”

Ortega played 220 games for Arminia Bielefeld across 12 years.
