Manchester City have agreed to sign Sunderland goalkeeper Marton Fulop on loan until the end of the season.



The Premier League has allowed City to bring in another goalkeeper after Shay Given dislocated a shoulder to leave Roberto Mancini short of options.

City have been successful in recruiting Fulop from Sunderland for the three remaining matches of the campaign, with the Hungarian currently down the pecking order at the Stadium of Light.

Fulop is set to line up for City against Aston Villa on Saturday, while Faroe Islands international Gunnar Nielsen, who replaced Given at Arsenal on Saturday, will provide back-up.

A Manchester City spokeswoman confirmed on Tuesday night: "We anticipate that Marton Fulop will join us in training tomorrow and we thank him and Sunderland AFC for their help in this situation."

Fulop has played 14 matches for the Black Cats this season but has fallen behind Craig Gordon and Trevor Carson at the Stadium of Light.

The Hungarian, who was once Paul Robinson's understudy at Tottenham Hotspur, has also had loan spells with Chesterfield, Coventry City, Leicester City and Stoke City.

imho, è una vergogna.

Sono d'accordo. Le formazioni giovanili non esistono esclusivamente per formare i campioni del domani: utilizzarle per fronteggiare gli imprevisti della prima squadra non dovrebbe essere un'eccezione, ma la regola.

ma a parte quello, perché dare un vantaggio ad una squadra?
è come se la figc desse l'autorizzazione al milan di prendere un difensore perché sono tutti infortunati e oddo non è cosa.
io trovo sta cosa assurda!!non hai portieri?#@*§ tuoi!

concordo
