Abdukodir Khusanov will have been dreaming of his Manchester City debut from the moment he first learned of their interest this month. It turned into a nightmare and he must now carry the weight of having one of the worst debuts in recent memory.

Abdukodir Khusanov of RC Lens is expected to join City for around $51 million before the end of the January window as the Northern France outfit continue to sell of their top talents in an effort to combat their substantial financial concerns.
