Manchester City have completed the signing of AFC Wimbledon goalkeeper Spike Brits.

AFCW have announced the 16 year-old had left in a club-record fee for an academy player.

Wimbledon academy manager Mike Hamilton confirmed the transfer, saying: Spike originally joined our academy as an Under-9. Last year his significant progress was recognised when he received his first international call-up for England at youth level.

Since then Spike has won eight caps and this year helped England Under-16s to win the Mondial Montaigu Tournament, further enhancing his reputation as one of the best players of his age range.

We are now in a position to confirm that Spike has joined Premier League champions Manchester City for a record fee received by AFC Wimbledon for an academy player."
