Sevilla has agreed to sell Spain striker Alvaro Negredo to Manchester City, the La Liga club said on Wednesday.

"It's now official," Sevilla said on its website. "Alvaro Negredo is a new Manchester City player pending medical checks."

Spanish media reported City would pay about 28 million euros ($37 million) for the 27-year-old, who will rejoin compatriot Jesus Navas, the Spain winger who sealed his move from Sevilla to City last month.
