Manchester City completed the signing of Chelsea winger Shaun Wright-Phillips on Thursday for an undisclosed fee. The 26-year-old left City for Chelsea in 2005, but managed only 43 starts, the dpa reported.
He has agreed to a four-year contract at City. "Obviously I'm delighted to come back to City and I just can't wait to get started again," he told the club's website. City manager Mark Hughes said, "I've always admired him and he's certainly been a target of mine since I came to the football club." "To actually secure the deal and bring Shaun back home is a fantastic coup for us and I'm sure the supporters will be just as excited as we are to have him back at Manchester City."
