Wilfried Bony – Striker – Manchester City

On the 11th of January Wilfried Bony became the most expensive African player of all time when Manchester City purchased his services for forty-three million US dollars. The former Swansea striker was brought in to provide an alternative attacking threat to Sergio Aguero. Bony is not cup-tied so City will immediately benefit from his services against Barcelona, who are particularly susceptible to aerial duels – one of the Ivorian’s strong suits.
