It looks like Maicon is done according to their owner, Nasty waiting for work permit, plus Javi Garcia coming in to replace DeJong.

That will be some 12 hours.

To me, looking at the targets we have had for that position from DeRossi to Garcia (& others who are whispered who we probably contacted in case we couldn't get Garcia), plus the signing of Rodwell, it's about upgrading DeJong & balancing the team.
Nige can't play cb, all the others can (at a push). They are all stronger in the air & have a bit more to their game (in DeRossi's case a lot more) but it seems to me it's as much to do with physique as anything. If Nige could jump up & head a ball, I recon he'd still be at City.
Edit: Garcia's nickname is Gladiador in answer to the question.

Garcia is a warrior. Upgrade on Rodwell (now that is, Rodders has the potential to go where he wants) and Barry, adapt with ball to feet and an absolute warrior, they say the finest thing about the guy is his desire to win, apparently he goes mental at his defenders when they get sloppy, pushes the team on, ect. Sounds like a vice captain in the making.
Also the lad can play CB and CDM naturally so gives versatility and at nearly 6ft 2" is a known powerhouse.
Thankfully Garcia is definitely an upgrade on the outgoing De Jong. Get him in Marwood!!

I can't believe no one else has said it, but won't it be a bit awkward for him with Micah there?

Welcome.
I think this lad is going to do well for us. I was totally gobsmacked when I first heard about it but the more I've been thinking of it & especially just reading Bob's little comment today about how AJ likes it to feet but Sinclair plays in the space, I think there's a lot more tactical planning in this than we have realised.
We may have just gained something we lost when Bellamy went.

It's bit awkward that you'd pay so much attention on his build. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
