Mix Diskerud appears to have completed a transfer to Manchester City, penning a four-and-a-half year deal with the Premier League leaders.

It appears the 27-year-old has now departed NY, penning a four-and-a-half year contract with Pep Guardiola's side. The following season he only played 12 league matches, as the U.S. global fell down the pecking order, and was eventually loaned out. He had another season left on his contract with NYCFC but that deal has been terminated.

Manchester City were beaten to the announcement of their first signing of the January transfer window by a sportswear company on Saturday - but not all was as it seemed.

It is highly, highly unlikely that Diskerud ever appears in a game with City's first team. But he is still under contract with MLS, and NYCFC is owned by City Football Group, Man City's holding company, which helps explains the puzzling move.

Mooy then was sold to Huddersfield for €9.1 million following the season.

Diskerud's contract with NYCFC and MLS was set to expire at the end of 2018, according to ESPN. The odd aspect of this signing is that he drastically underperformed in MLS, and was eventually benched by manager Patrick Vieira.

Umbro, who sponsor the player in question but not the club, announced the surprise move on their official Instagram account, with Diskerud describing City as "probably the best football club in the world".
