On Wednesday, journalist Sacha Tavolieri explained Anderlecht had rejected Manchester City’s second bid Sergio Gómez.
Anderlecht included Gómez in the squad to face Estonian side Paide Linnameeskond in the UEFA Conference League qualifiers today. He would have started the tie if not for the new development that took place last night.
Het Laatste Nieuws explain the Jupiler Pro League side and Manchester City have reached a ‘verbal agreement’ for the left-back’s transfer.
The Citizens have convinced the Spaniard’s employer with an offer of €15m plus bonuses. The final details of the deal need to be clarified. Gómez has had a four-year deal ready from Pep Guardiola’s side for some time, and HLN add his medical is ‘already scheduled for today’.
After completing the deal, Manchester City will make a decision on his immediate future. The report states a loan move to Girona and inclusion in Guardiola’s squad are among the possibilities.
