Wing wizard Jeremy Doku is currently undergoing his medical ahead of a move to reigning Premier League champions Manchester City.
As reported on Monday, the Cityzens have agreed a fee with French club Rennes for the 21-year-old of around $65m after three weeks of tough negotiating.
Jeremy Doku set to move to Man City
According to Fabrizio Romano, the winger is set to complete his medical examinations and sign a long-term contract with City by the end of today at which point the move will be made official by both clubs.

Doku had already agreed personal terms with the Sky Blues weeks before a fee had even been agreed upon. This effectively removed Rennes’ attempt to up their asking price for Doku towards the $80m mark after Chelsea made an inquiry, with City successfully haggling the fee down to $65m for the youngster.
Doku’s exciting dribbling and creativity will be an excellent alternative addition to Pep Guardiola’s men, who at times have proved to be slightly one-paced when trying to break down opposition teams which decide to sit deep.
