Negredo will be City's TODAY for 28 million euros

[london blue 2]

£60k/week - bargain!

Really hope that bit is true - would be great business by the club (and that article was in Euros too!).

Even if the actual wage is slightly higher, we should definitely see an improvement in our wage bill following this summer's business.

Hopefully we can win that financial savings trophy off of Arsena this year

Yeah he's been to pick up a Wonderwall cheap city kit from Sportsdirect.

I think the chap is right though. Matter of hours now.

[Ted Hughes]

They have been doing a press conference & the pres has said he expects us to sign Negredo shortly.

[Ajardine]

This is the sort of signing that exites me. Unkown to the Premier League, like Fernandinho & Navas, but have the attributes to play at this level. Like Silva when he first came here, nobody knew how to handle him, so hopefully the new trio/quad will be like that!! I think they will all excell, more than at other clubs, due to the calibre of players around them. Negredo & magic Dave to form a great partnership domestically and carry it through to international level.

Alvaro Negredo will complete his £24.5m move to Manchester City on Wednesday afternoon, Sevilla club president Jose Maria Del Nido has said.

It looked as though the striker's move to England was about to collapse earlier in the week as City had not reached Sevilla's valuation, but the clubs have now come to an agreement.

City will pay an initial £21.5m for the 27-year-old, who scored 31 times in 42 club appearances last season, but this could rise by £3m following add-ons.

'We are about to complete the sale of Negredo to Manchester City. If all goes well, he will say goodbye this afternoon at the Sanchez Pizjuan,' Del Nido said.

'City are signing a great player. It is the contract of his life.'

Negredo is the second player City have signed from Sevilla this summer following the £15m purchase of winger Jesus Navas.

Negredo will replace Juventus-bound Carlos Tevez in City's strikeforce and could be soon joined by Stevan Jovetic, with negotiations over a £28m switch from Fiorentina ongoing.

[Tony P]

OMG OMG OMG!!!!

Wikipedia says he's ours! Must be true.

[Slim]

This is the same guy who two days ago said that City had a 1% chance of signing Negrado.

I hope the Fiorentina president says we have a 0.5% chance of signing JoJo, might get it done quicker.

[Scatman]

All I can say is Luis Suarez had better be careful when saying his surname.
