Manchester City have confirmed the signing of Spanish striker Alvaro Negredo from Sevilla.
The 27-year-old, who has 14 Spain caps and six international goals, follows Jesús Navas in arriving from the Spanish club.
A statement on the club's website said: "City are delighted to announce the signing of Alvaro Negredo, who becomes the club's third new recruit of the summer."
Negredo told a press conference in Spain earlier this week: "I have spoken to Navas, he's an important player in anyone's squad and I'm very happy to be playing with him again.
"Manuel Pellegrini completely convinced me to join Manchester City. It's a big club and a new challenge for me."
City also announced they had signed the Montenegrin striker Stevan Jovetic. The 23-year-old has scored 35 league goals in five seasons with Fiorentina, who finished fourth in Serie A last season.
