Pep Guardiola is seemingly set to sign Spanish international striker Nolito for Manchester City this summer.
The 29-year-old scored 12 goals in 29 La Liga matches last season, helping Celta Vigo club to secure their first European qualification in a decade.
The deal with the Citizens is for three seasons, but includes the option to add a fourth, according to Catalan television station TV3.
There had been interest in the Celta forward from a number of clubs, most notably from Barcelona, yet it appears the Premier League side has beaten all others to the punch.
Luis Enrique has reportedely asked the Barcelona board specifically for Nolito, with whom he previously worked while in Galicia, but there was hesitation to pay the €18 million release clause.
