The Andalusians will pay nine million euros to sign the former Celta man

The deal could be closed as soon as Sunday

Man City and Sevilla have reached a deal over Nolito's future. The transfer is likely to be sealed by the end of the weekend, with the Andalusians paying around nine million euros for the Spanish international winger. He is likely to earn around 10m euros over three years. 

Sevilla's first intention was to loan the player, but after Vitolo left for 37.5 million euros, president Pepe Castro decided he wanted to sign the player instead. He needed an image boost after the shambles involving the Canarian winger when he announced Vitolo would be staying one day before he left. 

Nolito will not go to the US with City but instead head straight to Japan where he can link up with Eduardo Berizzo's men. The Argentine coach was crucial in the deal, because it was under him at Celta that Nolito hit his career best form.
