Manchester City close in on £25m-rated Sevilla star Jesus Navas

Jesus Navas has edged closer to joining Manchester City, with his club Sevilla accepting he will move this summer.

Manuel Pellegrini wants to make the £25million-rated star one of his first signings at the Etihad.

And Sevilla boss Unai Emery admits the Spain winger, 27, is likely to go. He said: “Everything indicates he will leave.”

Navas, also a target for Liverpool and Real Madrid, said: “Manchester City are a team I like.”

'They have put everything into trying to sign me so that I can be there and that is welcome.'
