Manchester City are reportedly frustrated with how transfer discussions with Brighton & Hove Albion over full-back Marc Cucurella have unfolded.
Premier League rivals Chelsea are closing on a £50million-plus deal for the Spaniard Cucurella after further talks with Brighton.
The 24-year-old has already agreed to join the Stamford Bridge club and is awaiting the go-ahead once the finer details of the fee and payment are passed by Brighton's owners.
Cucurella had handed in a transfer request last week after seeing City thwarted in their attempts to sign him for under £40m.
