Manchester City seal deal for Gerónimo Rulli

Manchester City have reached an agreement to sign Argentine goalkeeper Gerónimo Rulli from Olympique Marseille, adding experienced cover to their squad ahead of the new season. According to multiple reports, negotiations between the clubs have concluded, allowing the 34‑year‑old to travel to England for his medical before finalising the move. The contract will run until June 2028, with an option to extend his stay for an additional year.

Argentine outlets indicate that City will pay around 3.8 million euros for Rulli, who is expected to serve as an immediate backup option within Pep Guardiola’s setup. The former Villarreal and Ajax goalkeeper brings considerable European pedigree and arrives to strengthen competition behind City’s established starters. His signing reflects the Premier League champions’ strategy of securing reliable depth across all positions as they prepare for another demanding campaign. Rulli’s experience and composure are seen as valuable assets for City’s evolving squad structure.
