Manchester City are set to add to their captures of Ilkay Gundogan and Oleksandr Zinchenko with the signing of 19-year-old Colombia international Marlos Moreno.
According to Goal, Moreno is poised to sign for the two time Premier League champions in the next few days, with Moreno's Atletico Nacional coach Reinaldo Rueda confirming that a deal is "very close". Rueda also said that "Everything with Marlos is very close. It is a decision that has already been made by his agent and representatives."
Moreno is one of the hottest young talents in South American football at the moment and had a chance to showcase his considerable talent at the recent Copa America Centenario, scoring his first international goal, against Costa Rica, at the tournament.

The Atletico Nacional prodigy can play as either a winger or a forward and will become the third player to arrive at the Etihad since Pep Guardiola became manager.
