Atletico Nacional forward Marlos Moreno will join Manchester City before heading out on loan to Deportivo La Coruna for the 2016-17 campaign, according to the player's agent.
Man City have been strongly linked with a move for the 19-year-old over the last couple of weeks and the teenager's representative Eladio Tamayo has confirmed that a deal is near completion.
"I will travel with Marlos on Saturday to sign a contract with Manchester City," he told Futbolred. "He will then go on loan to Deportivo La Coruna for a year. The main architect of all this is Marlos, with his discipline and commitment. I just contributed a little bit."
It is understood that Moreno, who has scored once in seven appearances for the Colombian national team, will sign a five-year contract with the Premier League outfit.
