Manchester City have agreed a deal to bring Crystal Palace defender and England international Marc Guehi to the Etihad.

Guehi was on the brink of a move to Premier League champions Liverpool in the Summer but the move fell through in the dying stages of the window after outbound manager Oliver Glasner refused to sanction the deal.

Pep Guardiola’s side will pay a fee in the region of £20m pounds for the 25-year-old, with less than six months remaining on his current deal.

It is also rumoured Guehi will be earning a significant increase on his wages at Palace, with figures north of £200 0000 per week circulating.
