According to German daily Bild, the Citizens have agreed on an initial &pound19.3m fee for the player with an additional &pound3m based on performance-related bonuses.

The report adds that the former Nuremburg star will ink a four-year deal with the Mancunian giants ahead of a formal announcement later in the week.

City boss Pep Guardiola is known to have permitted the move despite Gundogan having suffered a severe knee injury during the back end of last season.

Gundogan racked 40 appearances for BVB in all competitions last term.
