France international Rayan Cherki has been handed the number 10 shirt at Manchester City following the departure of Jack Grealish to Everton.

Cherki follows in the footsteps of club legends such as Sergio Aguero and Colin Bell to wear the famous shirt.

The 21-year-old said he was "very happy" to receive the number 10 and "can't wait" to wear it at Etihad Stadium.

Cherki joined City from Lyon in the summer and makes a quick switch from the number 29 shirt that he wore at the Club World Cup.
