There is no chance for the player to make a place for himself in the starting XI with the presence of Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez at the club.
Delap was far down the pecking order at Man City and stopped getting opportunities to play for the first team.
He needed a move like this to play first team football and that at the highest level.
