The 25-year-old midfielder has been heavily linked with the Etihad Stadium outfit for quite some time now and if the reports are true then Citizens have got their man from Signal Iduna Park as one of the players the City wants to bring in for next season.

The deal is believed to be worth £30 million until June 2021. However, Manchester City have not released any official statement.
