Benfica striker Darwin Nunez willing to change agents for Man City, Atletico Madrid move

Benfica striker Darwin Nunez wants to join Manchester City this summer - and is willing to change agents to make it happen.

Record says Nunez is ready to leave Benfica at the end of this season and favours City over rival interest from Atletico Madrid.

It's suggested he would be prepared to leave agent Edgardo Lasalvia, with whom he has been with for many years, to be represented by Eugenio López once the season is over.

The reason for the change would be that Nunez believes that López would be better equipped to take him to Atleti or City - with the latter his top choice.

Both Newcastle and West Ham failed with offers for Nunez in January.
