Bristol City are on the verge of signing a 21-year-old striker

Championship side Bristol City are on the verge of signing striker Fally Mayulu from Austrian giants Rapid Vienna this summer.

The striker joined Rapid Vienna on a free transfer last year and has scored six times in 28 league appearances for the club.

After just one year in Austria, Mayulu is ready to move on and is on the verge of completing a move to the second tier of English football.

Bristol City have agreed a deal to sign the striker from the Austrian giants on a permanent transfer this summer.

According to the Austrian daily Courierthe striker even traveled to England to undergo a medical with the Championship club.

Agreeing personal terms is unlikely to be a problem for Bristol City, with the deal only pending the forward’s successful medical.

It took several rounds of negotiations before Rapid Vienna agreed to sanction the sale of the striker this summer.

The Austrian giants rejected Bristol City’s first two offers of €1.5m and €2.5m respectively.

With several clubs showing interest in Mayulu, Bristol City upped their offer to €3.5 million and the third and final bid was successful.
