“Everything is ready and planned to do it in a day. So I'll be back [with the national team on Sunday].
Reijnders also confirmed that City was in a hurry to complete the agreement before closing the Club World Cup transfer window on Tuesday.
“Yes, the record closes, so he had to go as soon as possible,” he said, before expressing his emotion when linking with City before his trip to the United States for the tournament.
“Yes, of course, I will know the guys immediately. I know [Netherlands international] Nathan Aké, but I think it's good for me to participate. “
