Manchester City are optimistic that they will wrap up a deal for River Plate forward Julian Alvarez soon, according to reports.
The 21-year-old is out of contract at his current club at the end of 2022, and appears to be edging nearer to a big-money move to Europe.
It was recently claimed that City had agreed a fee with River Plate for the exciting prospect, which would see him join the Premier League outfit in the summer.
Following on from this, it is now understood that the transfer could be wrapped up in the near future, as reported by BBC Sport.
