Manchester City agree deal to sign Patrick Roberts?

Fulham have reportedly accepted an offer from Manchester City for midfielder Patrick Roberts.

Reports emerged on Monday that City were chasing the highly-rated youngster and a move was expected before the end of the month, but it appears as though Manuel Pellegrini's side have wasted no time in attempting to secure a deal for the 18-year-old.

According to ESPN, City have agreed to pay Fulham a fee of £5m, which could potentially rise to £10m if a number of add-ons are fulfilled.

Roberts, who is a regular in the England Under-19 squad, has featured in 22 matches for Fulham, but all but two of those appearances have come from the substitutes' bench.
