Liam Smith: Manchester City expected to sign Kilmarnock teenager

Kilmarnock's Liam Smith is expected to join Manchester City in a move so as to land the Rugby Park club £200,000.

Despite the deal being a free transfer, the Scottish Premiership aspect will acquire the six-determine sum as schooling compensation for the 17-year-old.

Killie are also anticipated to earn future prices depending on how well the teenage winger does in England.

Smith has in no way featured for the Ayrshire side's first team but has 3 Scotland Under-17 caps.

The city's interest started out a year ago with an initial offer being made to the Scot inside the summer.

However, the Premier League champions have beaten off the opposition for his signature with the deal poised to be finished this week.
