I love Palmeiras and always will but the decision to come to City was an easy one. I want to be the best footballer I can be and the conversations Ive had with the people at City so far has convinced me there isnt a better place for me to fulfil my ambitions.

I want to promise the Manchester City fans I will give absolutely everything to make the most of this opportunity."

Gnonto has been allowed to arrive in Italy in good time so that he is able to complete his move to Fiorentina before the deadline should Leeds sign a replacement.
