He told the club’s official website: “I’ll try to bring as much as I possibly can. I’ll do everything that the manager asks of me, try my absolute best and do everything I can to try to repeat the form I’ve shown throughout my career at various clubs.
“It’s just about trying to play my normal game and let’s hope that I can help Manchester City to win games.
“I think that Pep Guardiola is one of the best managers in the world. He knows a lot about the game and he’s going to help me progress as a player and I’m sure he’ll get the best out of me.”
The striker becomes City’s third summer signing after the arrival of Ilkay Gundogan from Borussia Dortmund, as well as Australian midfielder Aaron Mooy.
Nolito has scored 39 goals in 103 appearances over the past three years with Celta Vigo.
