Manchester City have completed the signing of Bosnia and Herzegovina striker Edin Dzeko for a fee of around £27 million.
The 24-year-old has signed a four-and-a-half year contract and has been handed the vacant number 10 shirt.
Although the former Wolfsburg star completed his move too late to be considered for Sunday's FA Cup tie at Leicester, he is likely to make his debut against Wolves at Eastlands next Saturday.
Manchester City have been after Dzeko for some time and now Roberto Mancini has a wealth of forward talent at his disposal as they go for Premier League glory joining the likes of Carlos Tevez and Mario Balotelli up front.
Dzeko scored 66 goals in 111 appearances for Wolfsburg between 2007 and 2011 and has become one of the hottest properties in European football.
Edin Dzeko's career:
2003/2005 - Zeljeznicar Sarajevo - 40 apps (5 goals)
2005/2007 - Teplice - 43 apps (16 goals)
2005 - Usti Nad Labem (loan) - 15 apps (6 goals)
2007/2011 - VFL Wolfsburg - 111 apps (66 goals)
