“It’s all done, the goalkeeper said yes to the Granata and now Manchester City have given the green light. It’s all true, it’s secured,” Hart’s agent Jonathan Barnett said.
According to the Mirror, Striker Wilfried Bony is wanted by three Premier League clubs. Among them is West Ham, Stoke and Everton are set to battle it out for him, with the report claiming Everton are willing to pay up to £20m to sign him permanently.
Samir Nasri has admitted he could leave before the end of transfer deadline day and L’Equipe say Sevilla have joined the race for his signature. He is also interesting Turkish club Besiktas.
And the Daily Record are reporting that City are prepared to subsidise Eliaquim Mangala’s wages in order to secure him a loan deal, with interest from Tottenham.
The article adds that further interest in the defender could come from clubs in Spain, France and Italy before Wednesday’s deadline.
