Manchester City have reached an agreement with Lazio to sign left-back Aleksandar Kolarov, according to reports.
Sky Sport 24 claims that the two clubs met in Rome on Thursday and agreed upon a deal. The 24-year-old has been coveted by a plethora of clubs in the transfer market but it seems the Premier League outfit will secure his services.
The exact details of the deal are yet to emerge.
Man City are also reportedly close to signing Mario Balotelli from Inter. The teenage striker is on the radar of the Citizens and it's been suggested that City officials have already held talks with Inter representatives on Thursday evening and have been informed that Balotelli will not be sold for a small price.
Balotelli has been heavily linked with a move to the City of Manchester Stadium for the past several weeks.
