Manchester City close to signing £30m Fernandinho after player has medical

Manuel Pellegrini's installation as Manchester City's new manager is still to be formally confirmed but team restructuring at the Etihad Stadium continues apace with Fernandinho, the Brazilian midfielder, close to completing a move from Shakhtar Donetsk.

Fernandinho was spotted arriving at a private Manchester hospital for a medical on Wednesday morning as the transfer entered its final stages. Strong tackling, athletic and capable of operating as a deep-lying playmaker, the 28-year-old has been on City's radar for almost a year but the £42.5m buy-out clause in his contract was initially deemed far too steep.

With a compromise – around £30m – apparently agreed, Fernandinho will join Jesús Navas, the 27-year-old Spanish wide man, who is signing for Pellegrini's new-look team from Sevilla for a fee rising to £27m, at City. An "old-fashioned" orthodox winger, Navas has clearly overcome the problems with acute homesickness and anxiety which hampered him earlier in his career.

Having left Málaga, Pellegrini is currently finalising his deal at City with the appointment scheduled to be confirmed by the beginning of next week at the very latest.

While Roberto Mancini's successor dots the i's and crosses the t's on his new contract, Txiki Begiristain, City's director of football, and Ferran Soriano, the chief executive, are ensuring the club do not repeat last summer's mistakes and fall behind rivals in the transfer market.

Indeed Fernandinho and Navas could soon be joined by the Napoli striker Edinson Cavani and the Málaga midfielder Isco as Pellegrini aims to add adventure, pace and fluency Mancini's old ensemble.

His revamped side will be expected to gel during a hectic close-season tour embracing fixtures in South Africa, Hong Kong and Germany before concluding with a game against Arsenal in the Finnish capital Helsinki on 10 August.

Manchester City sign Jesus Navas on five-year deal

The Sevilla winger has been strongly linked with the Premier League outfit, who made the 27-year-old Spain international one of their top targets this summerSevilla have confirmed that winger Jesus Navas has signed for Manchester City on a five-year deal.

The Liga club announced on their website that the 27-year-old will move to Etihad Stadium subject to a medical, whilst the fee is believed to be in the region of €25 million (£21.3m).

City, who are expected to appoint Manuel Pellegrini after he revealed that he has a verbal agreement with the Premier League club, had made Navas a key target this summer.

Navas also added fuel to the speculation, recently admitting his admiration for the club.

"I like Manchester City a lot and it has great players," he told reporters.

"I'm open to anything. I want to win more and reach my goals. Manchester City has done all it can to bring me in and I have to be grateful for that.

"I want to go on and win trophies."

Navas has spent his entire career at Sevilla, making his debut in November 2003. He played 393 times for the Andalusian side, winning two Uefa Cups, one European Super Cup, two Copa del Reys and a Spanish Super Cup.
