DONE DEAL: Man City defender Philippe Sandler joins Anderlecht

Manchester City defender Philippe Sandler is moving on a season-long loan with Anderlecht.

Former City skipper Vincent Kompany became player-manager at the Belgian club in May and Sandler will be able to continue learning from one of Europe's best defenders on a daily basis.

He passed a medical yesterday ahead of the two clubs confirming the deal.

The 22-year-old centre-half has played twice for City since joining from PEC Zwolle in 2018.
