Manchester City have completed the £14.9m signing of Spain international Jesus Navas from Sevilla.Navas, 27, underwent a successful medical in New York where he is currently with the Spain squad.Navas was a one-club man - he has spent the last 10 years with Sevilla, making 393 appearances and scoring 34 goals.He was a key part of the Sevilla team that won the Uefa Cup in 2006 and 2007 but was held back earlier in his career by a fear of travelling away from his Andalusian home.A quick and direct right winger, he was a member of Spain's successful 2010 World Cup and Euro 2012 squads and is in the 23-man party picked for the eight-nation Confederations Cup, which starts on 15 June.

Navas told the club website: "Manchester City is an exciting project and this is the right moment for me to take this step. I'm very happy with the opportunity and the decision.

He becomes City's second signing of the summer, following the arrival of Fernandinho from Shakhtar Donetsk last week for around 30m euros.
