Manchester City reach agreement for €90m Josko Gvardiol deal

Many things are happening with Josko Gvardiol. Yesterday night I maintained that things were close and I was keeping my ‘here we go’, and now an agreement is almost done. They’re just waiting to sign contracts, so it’s not a done deal yet, but an agreement is in place for Gvardiol to move to Man City for €90m. The young Croatian will become the most expensive centre-back in the history of the game - there are no add-ons, so just €90m fixed.

As previously reported, Gvardiol agreed personal terms with Manchester City a long time ago, so he will travel on Thursday or Friday, and we’ll see when he’ll have his medical. The original plan was Friday, but we’ll see. Either way, the deal is agreed and he’ll be a top signing for Pep Guardiola.
