SEVILLA have accepted an offer from Manchester City for Spain winger Jesus Navas.
The 27 year old, who has spent his entire professional career at Sevilla, is set to undergo a medical with City, the Spanish club said last night.
A statement on the Sevilla website read: "Jesus Navas is leaving Sevilla FC bound for Manchester City.
"Sevilla FC has accepted the offer of the English club, taking into account the will of the player, and he will undergo a medical."
No fee was mentioned by the club, but reports have suggested a deal could be worth up to £24million.
Navas made his debut at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan stadium in 2003. Since then he has won two UEFA Cups and two Copa del Rey titles, as well as being part of the Spain squads that won the 2010 World Cup and Euro 2012.
