City Football Group, the umbrella company owning Manchester City, are poised to enter the Irish market by recruiting Bohemians teen Danny McGrath for Belgian outfit Lommel SK.
The midfielder was vice-captain of the Ireland team that reached the U17 Euro quarter-finals in May and earned a long-term contract offer after impressing on a recent trial at the second tier club.
