Manchester City's new midfield signing Nico Gonzalez will help them plug the gap caused by the absence of injured key player Rodri, manager Pep Guardiola said on Friday.

New Manchester City midfielder Nico Gonzalez says it was "so easy" to join the club as working with Pep Guardiola can help him reach his "full potential". The 23-year-old was a £50m arrival from Porto on transfer deadline day and became City's fourth signing of the January window.
