Manchester City midfielder Maximo Perrone is completing a £25million move to Como.
Perrone joined City from Velez Sarsfield in Argentina two years ago for around £9m, spending last season on loan at Las Palmas.
The 22-year-old has enjoyed a run at Serie A this term under Cesc Fabregas, with Como set to finish the campaign in mid table.
The club’s official website recently labelled Perrone a ‘compass’, the ‘Swiss watch’ who keeps ‘Como ticking’ and they had already triggered a one-year extension to his loan deal.
But talks surrounding a permanent switch continued between the two parties and they have struck a deal that will see City almost triple their profit on the central midfielder.
