Manchester City are set to sign Wilfried Bony after opening talks with Swansea over a £30million deal for the Ivory Coast striker.


Both clubs confirmed yesterday that negotiations are under way, although a transfer fee and personal terms have yet to be agreed. Swansea are demanding £25m up front plus £5m in add-ons, and Bony wants to double his earnings to £120,000 a week.


Although the 26-year-old is at a training camp in Abu Dhabi preparing for the Africa Cup of Nations, his representatives were discussing terms with the Premier League champions last night.


City must ensure that any deal falls in line with the financial limitations imposed on them by Uefa for breaching financial fair play rules. Manuel Pellegrini would also have to cut one foreign player from his Champions League squad if he wants to register Bony for next month’s tie with Barcelona.


But Pellegrini realised he needs a fourth senior striker after seeing Sergio Aguero, Edin Dzeko and Stevan Jovetic all sidelined by injury last month. – Daily Mail
