Manchester City look set to make their first signing of the summer transfer window who has now also been spotted in the city.
Often, new signings either take to social media or are simply posted by other parties in the city when they are about to put pen to paper.
Before signing for the club, such players take a look around the city as well to explore their surroundings.
Pep Guardiola’s men are set to head to the US for their pre-season tour and as a result, to have a potential fresh face training and playing with the team from day one would be ideal.

Savio pictured in Manchester amid Man City links
Over two weeks, Fabrizio Romano had claimed that Savio was set to sign for Manchester City.
Described as a “special player” by Girona boss Michel — who the Brazilian played under during his one-season loan stint from ESTAC Troyes last season — he is one of the most talented up-and-coming wingers in the world.
It was reported on Tuesday that the 20-year-old is set to be announced as a City player next Wednesday.
A photo of Manchester City-linked starlet Savio emerged in Manchester City’s luxury store, Harvey Nichols — as shared by one of their private shoppers on his Instagram page.
The youngster appeared to have done some shopping before potentially heading to the club sooner rather than later to make his imminent move official.
Savio seems set to become a Manchester City player
It does not seem like a coincidence that Savio, who has been linked with a move to Manchester City for months is now in the city.
In the summer, the silky technician was busy representing Brazil at Copa America — which is perhaps why he could not go ahead with his reported move to the Etihad Stadium.
But with the Brazilians crashing out of the tournament in the quarter-final to eventual semi-finalists Uruguay — the wonderkid’s journey in South America’s most prestigious competition ended quite early.
Now, Savio seemingly has all the time in the world and as a result, he has made his way to Manchester to sign for Manchester City.
