Manchester City are reportedly on the verge of signing Nigeria Under-17 forward Musa Yahaya.
The youngster starred in his nation's successful U-17 World Cup campaign, scoring four goals en route to earning the nickname of the 'Nigerian Neymar'.
Fellow Premier League outfit Tottenham Hotspur were believed to be tracking the starlet, but City have beaten off competition from elsewhere - including Spain - for the 16-year-old's signature, according to Goal.com.
Should a move materialise, then Yahaya will eventually be joined at Eastlands by international teammate Kelechi Iheanacho, who will arrive in October - to coincide with his 18th birthday - after signing a pre-contract agreement with the Manchester giants.
