Swansea City have agreed a £28m fee to sell striker Wilfried Bony to Premier League champions Manchester City. The Ivory Coast international, 26, joined Swansea for a club-record £12m from Vitesse Arnhem in 2013 and was the Premier Leagues top scorer in 2014 with 20 goals. The fee breaks the Welsh club record sale of £15m that Liverpool paid Swansea for Joe Allen in August 2012. The two clubs hope to conclude the deal in the next 48 hours. City expect personal terms and a medical to be hitch-free, despite Bony being on Africa Cup of Nations duty with Ivory Coast for at least the next three weeks. The deal is £25m cash upfront with a further £3m in performance-related add-ons.
