Daniel Osvaldo is reportedly on the verge of joining Manchester City for £11.2m plus performance-related bonuses.
Roma have been in negotiations with City for several days and on Sunday evening rumours swirled around the Italian media that a deal was close.
Manchester City’s proposal now appears to be ?13m cash (£11.2m), whereas the Giallorossi have set a ?15m (£12.9m) price-tag on the Italy international.It is believed the deal can be struck if City add a further ?2m in performance-related bonuses.Roma would then reinvest that money in the Premier League by snapping up Manchester United winger Nani.Osvaldo is on the market after publicly insulting then-Coach Aurelio Andreazzoli following the Coppa Italia Final in May.
The 27-year-old has a history of fiery behaviour, including an incidentwhen he punched teammate Erik Lamela, and scored 16 goals in 29 Serie Agames last season.
