Reports in the north-west on Tuesday afternoon claim the 21-year-old could become Alex Neil’s first new signing of the summer, with Clough poised for a medical after City had a £1.5m bid accepted for the highly-rated Bolton academy product.

Wanderers official Twitter account, however, carried pictures of the Bolton first team squad, including Clough, training earlier on Tuesday.

Clough has also been linked with City’s Championship rivals Wigan and Reading this summer after scoring seven goals in 29 appearances for the Trotters last season, who were relegated to League One after major financial turmoil that saw ex-boss Neil Lennon depart and former Bolton striker Dean Holdsworth front a consortium to take over the club.

Clough has notched 13 goals in 39 career outings for the former Premier League outfit but is reportedly out of contract in 2017.
