Manchester City looks to have found a replacement for Riyad Mahrez with only a few days left in Europe’s summer transfer window.
City and French team Rennes have reportedly reached an agreement on a fee for the transfer of Belgium winger Jeremy Doku, who will cost the English and European champions 65 million euros ($71 million) if he passes a medical examination.
Neither club has commented officially about the potential transfer.

City has been searching for an extra attacker to add to the squad after selling Mahrez to Saudi Arabian team Al-Ahli last month.
Defender Josko Gvardiol and midfielder Mateo Kovacic are City’s two signings so far in this transfer window.
