Pep Guardiola believes Manuel Akanji will be the "perfect" fit for Manchester City after signing the Switzerland defender from Borussia Dortmund on transfer deadline day.Pep Guardiola believes Manuel Akanji will be the “perfect” fit for Manchester City after signing the Switzerland defender from Borussia Dortmund on transfer deadline day.

“We had four incredible central defenders before Manu but sometimes Ayme had tough injuries. He’s getting better but a month or month and a half still there sidelined,” Guardiola told reporters on Friday. Ake could be in line for a return to action in Saturday’s trip to Aston Villa, but Laporte is unlikely to be back from a knee injury until October.

Akanji will hope to be involved against Villa, but all eyes will be on his former Dortmund team-mate Erling Haaland after he scored hat-tricks in City’s last two matches.
