Manchester City are close to signing England Under 16 captain Harrison Miles, who is currently a free agent after leaving Southampton. The Premier League champions are reportedly advancing on a deal to secure the promising midfielder on a long-term contract. Despite his young age, Miles has already made appearances for the Saints at Under 21 level and was a regular starter for the Under 18s.

City have been active in recruiting young talent this summer, with Miles being one of two England youth internationals set to join the club’s development squad. The club has also reportedly beaten Liverpool to the signature of Chelsea’s Ryan McAidoo. While there have been no major signings for the senior squad as of yet, there could be movement after the European Championships and Copa America.

It is expected to be a relatively quiet summer in terms of transfers for Manchester City’s first team, with potential signings dependent on player departures. While there may be some movement after the international tournaments, no immediate purchases are on the horizon for the senior squad. Overall, City’s focus seems to be on recruiting talented young players for their development squad.
