Sandler’s Dutch of class for Man City

MANCHESTER CITY have bolstered their defensive ranks with the signing of Dutch youth international Philippe Sandler.

The reigning Premier League champions announced the arrival of the 21-year-old from PEC Zwolle yesterday.

The Holland Under-20 ace (above) came through the ranks at Ajax before moving on to their Eredivisie rivals and is likely to be one for the future at the Etihad Stadium.
