Manchester City new manager Sven Goran Eriksson has completed his fourth signing in the space of 24 hours after bringing Bulgarian striker Valeri Bojinov to the City of Manchester Stadium on Friday.

City have signed Spanish defender Javier Garrido, Croatia center-half Vedran Corluka and Brazilian midfielder Elano, who was a part of the team that clinched Copa America last month.

The 21-year old Bojinov has penned a 4-year deal for an undisclosed fee, signing from Serie A side Fiorentina.

The promising Bulgaria striker spent last season on-loan at Juventus, but manager Claudio Ranieri was not convinced to offer him an extension.

City are also on the verge of completing a move for Australia midfielder Mark Bresciano from Palermo.

Former England manager Eriksson said he will not cut spending until he achieves a certain target for the new-look City squad.

"My dream is to have eight defenders, eight midfielders and four strikers. That is what I am working towards and hopefully, by the time I have finished, that is what I will have," Eriksson stated in a press conference.
