Manchester City have signed current Germany international Sydney Lohmann on the back of nine trophy-laden years at Bayern Munich.

The midfielder has 39 caps and six goals for her country, won a bronze medal at the 2024 Olympics and also finished third in the UEFA Women’s Nations League that year, while at EURO 2022 she was a beaten finalist.

Lohmann told mancity.com: “I have a really positive feeling here at Manchester City. I’ve always had the thought to playing abroad at some point in my career and I just had the feeling that this year was the right time to do that.

“I’m really thankful for the time at Bayern Munich and I’m happy that I gained those experiences, but I think always when you go somewhere else, a big step like that, it’s always good for your personal growth.

“I definitely want to win a title, because I can see that’s possible. I think things have probably been quite tough in the last few months or year and everyone is really hungry to do better.”

Women’s Director of Football Therese Sjogran added: “We’re really pleased to have been able to secure Sydney’s signature and bring her winning form to the club.

“She is no stranger to success and has more than proven her worth in both Germany and on the world stage.

“Sydney’s calibre speaks for itself, and we believe she will be a fantastic addition to our squad here at City on and off the pitch over the next four years – in what is her first move away from home.”
