Zinchenko 'rejects Wolves move'

Manchester City defender Oleksandr Zinchenko has allegedly rejected the chance to sign for Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The two clubs are said to have agreed on a £16m fee for the Ukrainian international, who was expected to undergo a medical before Thursday's deadline.

According to The Sun, however, Zinchenko has had a change of heart and will now stay in Manchester.

City boss Pep Guardiola, who has kept the defender on the fringes of his squad, was reportedly happy to allow Zinchenko to leave the Etihad, but the youngster is now believed to be keen on developing up north.

Zinchenko, who joined his current employers when Guardiola took charge, made 14 appearances for City last term.
