The report adds that an announcement is expected to be made after Man City’s final game of the season against Fulham on Sunday.

Vicens began his time at City in 2018 as an assistant coach for the Under-18s, stepping up to lead the youth team as head coach two years later. Over the past four years, he has served as an assistant to Guardiola.

Former Swansea and Sheffield Wednesday boss Carlos Carvalhal looks set to leave Braga despite leading them to a fourth place finish in the Liga Portugal.
