MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Manchester City’s back-up goalkeeper to Gianluigi Donnarumma will be Gerónimo Rulli after the Argentina international joined from Marseille on a two-year deal on Wednesday. The 34-year-old Rulli replaces James Trafford as City’s second-choice goalie.
Trafford left to join Leeds last week. Rulli, who has played eight times for Argentina and was part of the World Cup-winning squad in 2022, has European experience after playing at Real Sociedad, Villarreal, Montpellier, Ajax and most recently Marseille since 2024. He had a brief spell at City in the 2016-17 season.
“I have been really impressed by him during our conversations, a strong desire to join us,” City director of football Hugo Viana said. “It’s clear we are getting a brilliant professional, as well as a top keeper.” ___ AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccer Source Manchester City complete the signing of Argentina goalkeeper Geronimo Rulli from Marseille.
