Eventually, the Blues had to make way for Juan Cuadrado and Schurrle was offloaded to Bundesliga club VfL Wolfsburg for a sum reported to be approximately £22m.

The Ivorian was scored the most goals in the EPL in the calendar year 2014 beating the likes of now-teammate Sergio Aguero. The Manchester club spent £25m which could rise to £28m to bring him into the side. Moving to City is a step up for Bony as they are still in the Champions League and he has already replaced Stevan Jovetic in the Champions League squad. With Aguero prone to injury and Edin Dzeko not performing as well as he used to, Bony could be a potentially great signing for City.

But he failed to find his knack for scoring goals in the Serie A too and finally Diego Simeone brought him back to Atletico Madrid where he has found a new lease of life and has already scored in crucial games against Real Madrid and Barcelona.
