To summarize again, it looks like we purchased Nacional's 60% for £8M but are figuring out the final fee for the other 40% owned elsewhere that's why the fee reported is like 8-12M possibly more because now the Star is reporting £15M

8 mil did seem rather low.

Hi mate,genuine question...wouldnt we need to agree that other 40% before sending him out on loan? Sounds like the kid is sat in Spain waiting for the ok?

Perhaps we are trying to loan 60% of him out and Deportivo like the 60% so much they want it for two years. That will be it all makes sense now.

Not even joking but I wouldn't put it past folks if Nacional shipped him to Spain once their 8M was received lol. The 3 main players were all sent away at the same time, one went to Mexico/Léon one went to Ajax and they probably sent Marlos to Depor because that's where he's playing this season lol. All and all somebody jumped the gun and I don't think it was us.

Did seem low at £8m.

Hope it's resolved quickly, for one season.

Marlos Moreno: Manchester City set to sign Colombia forward

Marlos Moreno has been capped seven times by Columbia
Manchester City are close to signing Colombia forward Marlos Moreno.

City will pay Colombian club Atletico Nacional £4.75m for the 19-year-old, and he is then likely to join La Liga side Deportivo La Coruna on loan.

Moreno would be Pep Guardiola's third signing this week, following the arrival of Leroy Sane from Schalke and Gabriel Jesus from Palmeiras.

Guardiola's overall spending since replacing Manuel Pellegrini as manager in July now exceeds £100m.

In addition to strengthening his current squad, former Bayern Munich boss Guardiola has prioritised signing highly-rated younger players for the future.

The Spaniard is still aiming to sign a central defender, with Everton's John Stones his number one target.
