Manchester City get go-ahead to sign player who could become league's fastest, following huge U-turn: report

Manchester City may have been boosted in their hopes of signing one of Europe's most in-demand and fastest players after a surprising U-turn from Real Madrid. City lost out to Madrid in the semi-finals of the Champions League, despite dominating for much of that tie, but the Sky Blues could take advantage of a change of heart from Los Blancos in the transfer market. Madrid had been favourites to land Bayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies ahead of City, long-time admirers of the Canadian international.
