Champions agree £51m deal for Belgium winger DokuGoalkeeper Petrovic poised to join Blues for £13.6m
Manchester City are poised to bolster their attacking options by beating West Ham to the signing of the exciting Belgium winger Jérémy Doku.
The treble winners agreed a deal with Rennes worth up to €60m (£51m) on Monday and a medical is due to take place later this week. The Hammers had submitted a bid for Doku on Sunday but Pep Guardiola’s side moved quickly for the 21-year-old, who was targeted as a replacement for Riyad Mahrez. Personal terms have been agreed with the player on a long-term deal. Mahrez departed the Etihad Stadium for Saudi Arabia at the end of last month after City accepted a £30m offer from Al-Ahli for the 32-year-old.
