Manchester City 'closing in on Marlos Moreno signing'

Man City 'closing in on Moreno capture'

Manchester City are reportedly on the verge of signing teenage forward Marlos Moreno from Atletico Nacional.

The two-time Premier League champions have been busy this week, bringing in Leroy Sane and Gabriel Jesus for a reported combined figure of £64m.

Manager Pep Guardiola is not done yet, though, as Colombia international Moreno is due to arrive in the coming days, costing around £4.75m, according to talkSPORT.

It is believed that City may send the 19-year-old attacker on loan for the 2016-17 season, with Deportivo La Coruna being touted as a potential destination.

The North-West outfit have spent around £100m on transfers so far this summer, including purchases of Ilkay Gundogan, Nolito and Oleksandr Zinchenko.
