Schalke are believed to be holding out for almost £42m

However Etihad sources say while the two parties are still apart, there is hope the situation can be resolved quickly.
Schalke’s director of football Christian Heidel suggested they are keen on an agreement – with Sane pushing for the move.
He said: “Like us, Manchester City also must think about itself, as both teams have to take into account the further planning in the transfer market.”
City counterpart Txiki Begiristain remains in China and moved on to Shenzhen with the players earlier today.
