City have struggled badly without Ballon d'Or winner Rodri, who suffered a serious knee injury in September.
Manchester City needed a late winner from substitute Kevin De Bruyne to beat Leyton Orient 2-1 and reach the FA Cup fifth round on Saturday after the third-tier side threatened to shock the Premier League champions.
Gonzalez junior came through Barcelona's famed La Masia academy, making 37 appearances for Barca before joining Valencia on loan and then moving to Porto in 2023.
City's spending was the second-biggest outlay ever worldwide by a club in the January transfer window behind Chelsea's 274 million pounds in 2023, according to Transfermarkt.
