Genoa have reportedly agreed terms with Manchester City to sign Olivier Ntcham on a two-season loan.
The rumour of interest had been circulating for some time, but La Gazzetta dello Sport are confident a deal has now been struck.
The 19-year-old has not yet featured for the senior Manchester City squad, despite arriving from Le Havre in 2012.
An attacking midfielder, Ntcham should join on a two-season loan with option to buy.
Genoa have reportedly agreed terms with Manchester City to sign Olivier Ntcham on a two-season loan.
The rumour of interest had been circulating for some time, but La Gazzetta dello Sport are confident a deal has now been struck.
The 19-year-old has not yet featured for the senior Manchester City squad, despite arriving from Le Havre in 2012.
An attacking midfielder, Ntcham should join on a two-season loan with option to buy.
His current contract with Manchester City is due to expire in June 2016, so before signing for Genoa he must extend that deal.
Ntcham is a former teammate of Paul Pogba at Le Havre and City don't want to risk repeating Manchester United's mistake of letting him go for free.
