According to German Sky Sports reporter Florian Plettenberg, negotiations between Manchester City and Cherki are progressing smoothly, and personal terms are close to reaching agreement.
At present, the main problem remains the agreement that Manchester City and Lyon need to reach, which price Cherki between 35 million and 40 million euros.
Cherky is currently focusing on completing his debut with the French national team, but it is expected that this transfer will be delayed for too long. Because, Manchester City allegedly hopes to include Cherki on the team's roster for the Club World Cup.
