Manchester City agrees to sell Joel Ndala to Cercle Brugge
Summary

Manchester City has reached an agreement with Belgian Pro League club Cercle Brugge for the permanent transfer of winger Joel Ndala. The 20-year-old leaves City after ten years in their academy, having previously spent time on loan at Jong PSV, Nottingham Forest, Hull City, and Sheffield Wednesday. Despite his promising youth career and 17 goals in 41 appearances for the U18 team, Ndala did not secure a place in the first team. The deal is valued at approximately £2.5 million, with Ndala seeking regular first-team opportunities in Belgium rather than continuing on loan. The transfer is expected to be formally confirmed soon.
