Manchester City are reportedly closing in on a deal to bring Borussia Dortmund forward Erling Braut Haaland to the Etihad this summer.
The Norway international is expected to be at the centre of a major transfer tussle at the end of the season, with a reported £63m release clause in his Dortmund contract set to activate in a few months.
Man City are regarded as one of the favourites for Haaland's signature, but Real Madrid, Manchester United, Barcelona, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich are also being linked.
However, the Daily Mail now claims that a deal 'is in place' for Man City to secure Haaland's signature, with the Premier League champions now expecting the 21-year-old to choose the Etihad as his next destination.
The report adds that agent fees to Mino Raiola and a signing-on bonus could take the total fee to over £100m, and the Man City board are now ready to give the green light to a move.
Haaland - whose father Alf-Inge Haaland previously represented Man City - has amassed 80 goals and 21 assists in 79 matches for Dortmund since arriving from Red Bull Salzburg in January 2020.
