City agree Garcia fee - Report

31 August 2012 19:16
Manchester City are reported to have agreed a £16million fee with Benfica for Spanish midfielder Javi Garcia. It is thought Garcia, 25, is having a medical with the reigning Premier League champions ahead of Friday's transfer deadline. The former Real Madrid player would fill the void left in Roberto Mancini's squad by the departure of Nigel de Jong to Italian giants AC Milan. And he would also provide extra cover in central defence for the Italian boss. City have already signed Brazil defender Maicon, Great Britain winger Scott Sinclair and ex-England goalkeeper Richard Wright on the final day of the summer transfer window.
