Sangare set to join Manchester City from Paris-Saint-Germain

Manchester City have reportedly reached an agreement to sign striker Mahamadou Sangare from Paris Saint-Germain.

The 18-year-old has impressed this season and is expected to join City’s academy in the coming weeks.

There is already a verbal agreement between the clubs. Sangare will undergo medical tests before the move becomes official.

Man City academy push continues with Sangare signing

The France Under-18 international has enjoyed a strong campaign in the UEFA Youth League, bagging eight goals and two assists in six appearances for PSG’s youth side.

The forward has quick feet, good movement and a sharp eye for goal.

Man City have a strong history of bringing young players through their system.

Phil Foden, Cole Palmer and Liam Delap are among the players they have developed in recent years.

They also have a track record of acquiring young players before selling them on for a profit once they have reached the desired standard.

City’s move for Sangare fits into their long-term vision of finding talent early and developing them in-house.

Despite a difficult season in the Premier League, Man City have reached the FA Cup final and will aim to claim silverware when they face Crystal Palace.
