DONE DEAL: Spike Brits confirms Man City move

AFC Wimbledon goalkeeper Spike Brits has confirmed he is signing for Manchester City.

The England youth star, who is only 16, has secured his future with the Premier League champions.

City have agreed a record fee for an academy player for the young keeper.

Brits took to social media this week, going onto his official Instagram account and writing: "Delighted to have signed for @mancity and proud to call Manchester my new home! It's time to get started, can't wait! Let's go, City!"

The news comes on the same day that another City youth keeper - James Trafford - is leaving the club.

The England Under-21 star is moving to Premier League newcomers Burnley on a long-term deal.

He will sign for a fee of £15 million that could rise by a further £4 million.
