Manuel Pellegrini delighted to be named new Manchester City boss
Manuel Pellegrini says he is committed to making a significant contribution at Manchester City, after being confirmed as the clubs new manager.
Pellegrini joins the Citizens from Malaga, who hit the headlines last season following a fantastic debut Champions League campaign which saw them come within minutes of reaching the semi-finals.
The former Real Madrid boss takes over from Roberto Mancini, who was sacked following Citys shock FA Cup final defeat to Wigan Athletic last month.
I am delighted to accept this hugely exciting opportunity. The Club has a clear vision for success both on and off the pitch and I am committed to making a significant contribution, said Pellegrini, after he signed a three-year contract with the club.
Everything is in place for Manchester City to continue to be successful and I am excited to be able to work with such a talented squad, the Executive team and the Board to deliver for fans who are renowned for their steadfast support.
Pellegrini will officially take the reins at the Etihad Stadium on June 24.
