Paris St Germain striker Nicolas Anelka has agreed terms with Manchester City over a £13million move to Maine Road.
City, who have been involved in discussions with Anelka's representatives this week, tonight announced that a deal has been agreed in principle with the player and the French club.
The 23-year-old will now undergo a medical this weekend in the hope that the transfer can be completed early next week.
City director of football Dennis Tueart and chairman David Bernstein reached agreement with the player after today taking him to see the club's new stadium, which will be used for this year's Commonwealth Games.
