DONE DEAL? Man City strike terms for Estudiantes winger Dario Sarmiento

Manchester City have struck terms for Estudiantes winger Dario Sarmiento.

El Dia reports a deal has been done for an initial €6m.

City have already signed Partizan teenager Filip Stevanovic, who will join in January, and are now reportedly close to sealing the services of Argentinian under-16 international Sarmiento, who made his senior debut this season.

The report says the transfer will give Estudiantes 20 per cent of any profit City make on Sarmiento - or a further €6m if that sell-on-clause expires without him having moved on.

It is claimed Sarmiento will join the club in the summer when he turns 18, although it is likely he could be loaned out to one of City's sister clubs in the City Football Group umbrella.
