Input: Manchester City have swooped for a second summer running for a big-priced defender, signing Argentina’s Nicolas Otamendi from Valencia for a fee of £32million on a five-year deal - a year after buying Eliaquim Mangala for £42m from Porto and two third-party ownership groups. The signing of Otamendi brings City’s summer outlay close to £100m, with the club still being strongly linked to a £50m deal for Wolfsburg's Kevin De Bruyne. Nick Harris explores whether UEFA have given up on Financial Fair Play and trying to keep spending down - or whether there is another explanation for the splurge.Manchester City have spent nearly £100m on five players this summerKevin de Bruyne is also expected to join for another £50mBut City's net spend could be as little as £35m due to clever accountingIt's not too late to sign up for MailOnline's new Fantasy Football game
