Felipe Caicedo, Georgios Samaras and David Sommeil all feature as we take a look back at players who’ve joined City in previous January transfers windows.

It being the first month of the year, mid-season signings are a hot topic, so we’ve delved into the history books to see how a host of winter recruits fared in the Blue shirt.

There’s Benjani’s derby day delight, a pair of penalty saves from David James and strikes from the likes of Robbie Fowler, Michael Ball and Albert Rieira.
