Fabian Delph

Manchester City are set to complete a £8 million move for Aston Villa midfielder Fabian Delph, according to Goal.

The England international was heavily linked with a move away from Villa Park this summer, despite signing a new four-and-a-half-year contract in January.

The report claims that City boss Manuel Pellegrini is reportedly keen to strengthen his squad with world class players in order to compete for Premier League title new season and Delph is now become Pellegrini’s summer target, using a release clause in the 25-year-old’s contract to secure him on the cheap.
