MATEO KOVACIC has left his Manchester City team-mates in stitches after butchering his initiation song.
The Croatian midfielder is a new arrival at the Etihad Stadium after signing from Chelsea for £30million this summer.

Kovacic has signed a four-year deal with the champions and has now completed his initiation.
During the club’s pre-season tour of Asia, Kovacic picked up the microphone at their team hotel in Tokyo, Japan.
In footage captured by birthday boy Erling Haaland, Kovacic’s out of tune performance had his new team-mates in fits of laughter.
As he struggles to make it through the track, players can be heard trying to contain their amusement.
Haaland uploaded the clip to his Instagram story and wrote: “Thanks for the birthday song @mateokovacic8.”
The Norwegian goal machine celebrated his 22nd birthday with the squad on Friday.
City are set to play three matches during their trip, starting on Sunday.
Pep Guardiola’s side will take on the Yokohama F. Marinos and Bayern Munich in Tokyo.

They will then conclude their tour on July 30 with a friendly against Atletico Madrid in Seoul, South Korea.
Kovacic remains City’s only signing so far this summer, despite their pursuit of other targets.
RB Leipzig defender and fellow Croatian Josko Gvardiol has been strongly linked with a move to Manchester.
Gvardiol has reportedly completed a medical with City ahead of a record-breaking move for a defender.
