10 things you need to know about David Silva
Spain midfielder David Silva has agreed to join Manchester City, according to sources.
Valencia will get £21million plus Roque Santa Cruz, who had an injury-plagued season at Eastlands - although the Paraguay international has yet to agree his switch to La Liga. If he refuses to go, City will pay a straight £27million.
Silva joins City's millionaires club with an £80,000-a-week salary, though his deal will not be finalised until Spain are knocked out of the World Cup and he completes a medical.
Roberto Mancini's side are also confident of completing an £20m deal for Barcelona's Yaya Toure, brother of central defender Kolo, once the Ivory Coast's tournament is over.
The news that Silva and Valencia have agreed a deal with City will come as a blow to Chelsea's Carlo Ancelotti, who had been hoping to bring the hitman to Stamford Bridge.
