CSKA star moves to Manchester for $US 35 MLN

CSKA Moscow’s star-striker Jo will complete a $US 35 MLN move to Manchester City. The long-lasting saga of Brazilian’s transfer was put to bed once and for all today by the English club.

Jo will be a record signing for City and a record pay day for CSKA. Though the Russian side will have to pay his previous club, Corinthians, a percentage of the fee.

The 21-year-old lanky Brazilian international will leave for England straight away, according to CSKA's press secretary.

He's scored 30 goals in 53 games for the army men.
