Bravo travels to Manchester, where he will double his wages

Claudio Bravo left Barcelona at midday on Tuesday as he travelled to Manchester. The player received permission to fly to England as he awaits the Blaugrana directors to sign the transfer documents.

This should happen on Thursday, when Jasper Cillessen undergoes his medical at the Camp Nou.

Bravo's flight left El Prat airport at 13:10 local time, and he was due to be met by a Manchester City delegation upon his arrival in the English city.

The Chilean will pass his medical tests but nothing will be made official until Thursday, once Barça are sure that Cillessen arrives in perfect condition.

The Ajax goalkeeper will play on Wednesday night against Rostov, in the Champions League qualifiers.

Bravo will be sold for around 20 million euros, and will see his wages doubled.

He was earning three million euros per year at Barcelona, and will receive six million dollars annually at the Etihad Stadium.
