Manchester City are reportedly hopeful of announcing the signing of Bacary Sagna from Arsenal at some point today.
The Frenchman penned a farewell message to Arsenal supporters yesterday after deciding to leave the Emirates after a seven-year spell.
City emerged as the favourites to sign the 31-year-old, who is also said to have attracted interest from numerous clubs around Europe, including Paris Saint-German.
According to The Express, while Sagna's contract at Arsenal does not officially expire until the end of the month, City are hopeful of clinching the full-back's signature on a free transfer today.
Sagna's last game for Arsenal was in the FA Cup final, where they secured a 3-2 victory over Hull City at Wembley to end a nine-year wait for silverware.
