Hatem trabelsi completes move to man city
-
The right-back, 29, who played for Tunisia at the World Cup, has moved on a free contract after passing a series of stringent medical tests.
Trabelsi's deal with Dutch club Ajax had expired and City boss Stuart Pearce said: "He is one of the best Bosmans (free transfers) of the summer.
The signing is subject to a work permit and the Tunisian is believed to be on a pa-as-you-play deal.
Pearce added on the club's website: "He has played at the highest level for Ajax, and been to three World Cups. He captains his country as well, so it is a good CV.
"I have watched him play for Ajax over the last three years and been very impressed with him.
"He is an attacking full-back we're just waiting on that work permit now."
Trabelsi has been a long-time target of Arsenal and has also been linked with Liverpool and West Ham this summer.
Monaco and Paris St Germain also tracked Trabelsi this summer after he had made it patently clear last season that he would let his contract run out.
"I have been at Ajax for five years," he said in December.
"There are more opportunities in England and I think it's time for me to meet my destiny."

Why must everyone join Liverpool? You want them to be like Real Madrid, having all the galacticoes bickering among themselves?Originally posted by Agenda:lol, stole from under the noses of arsenal and liverpool -
Arrr... which world are you living in, a lot of players have join Liverpool meh?Originally posted by TIB1133B:Why must everyone join Liverpool? You want them to be like Real Madrid, having all the galacticoes bickering among themselves?
Anyway, How can you compare him to the galacticoes? Hatem trabelsi is only a half decent player now.
At 29 coming to 30 is not exactly what you will call a good player to invest in for the future... Moreover, he is not the same player as he was some 3 to 5yrs back... after suffering chronic knee problems. That explains why Ajax released him and didn't re-new his contract.
This guy is known as an attacking full-back and after his injury and at age 29, he may have lost some of that speed he is known for liao. That is why he joined Manchester City on a pay-as-you-play deal... If no play means no pay also. -
gunners didnt make any move cos they already got lauren n eboue... tink he went cold after last season so nt much teams were interested...Originally posted by The man who was death:The right-back, 29, who played for Tunisia at the World Cup, has moved on a free contract after passing a series of stringent medical tests.
