Manchester City Transfer News: Contract, Fee Reportedly Set for Aymeric Laporte

Aymeric Laporte will reportedly undergo a medical at Manchester City next week after the Premier League leaders agreed a fee and a contract for the Athletic Bilbao centre-back on Friday.

City have agreed to pay the Basque club £57 million, according to Mark Dobson and Fabrizio Romano of the Guardian, who also reported "the 23-year-old is expected to sign a five-year contract at the Etihad Stadium."

If the deal goes through, City will break their transfer record, having paid £55 million for Kevin De Bruyne back in 2014, per the same report.
