Man City closing in on Sporting Lisbon whizkid Bruma

Manchester City are closing on Sporting Lisbon whizkid Armindo Tue Na Bangna.

The 17-year-old striker, known as Bruma, has been dubbed the 'new Cristiano Ronaldo' after youth coaches were left stunned by his performances for the Portuguese club's reserve side.

A Bola says the Premier League champions are preparing a second bid for the player, with a deal expected to be completed within days.
