Manchester City step up interest in Brighton's Marc Cucurella as a replacement for Oleksandr Zinchenko, as the Ukraine star's £32m move to Arsenal nears completion

Manchester City are moving for Brighton's Marc Cucurella after Oleksandr Zinchenko agreed a £32million switch to Arsenal.

Zinchenko remains with City at their training camp in Houston but is set for a move to the Emirates Stadium after finalising personal terms.

The 25-year-old has turned down previous chances to depart the Etihad Stadium but reuniting with Mikel Arteta proved a major pull for the versatile Ukraine international.
