Not just for next season but the next three, four, five years, because they are all young players."Danilo's situation at Madrid also changed while City pursued Alves. The 26-year-old had his head turned by serious interest from Juventus throughout June and was ready to make the move, but the Italian champions could only sign one non-EU player this summer and after agreeing terms with both Danilo and Bayern Munich's Douglas Costa, they elected to sign the latter. Chelsea are also reported to have shown an interest in the right-back but City are now hopeful of securing his signature by the time they fly to Los Angeles on Friday. Reports in Italy claim a deal worth as much as €35 million has been agreed with Madrid. City are in the United States for the International Champions Cup and after meeting Manchester United in Houston they will travel to LA to play Madrid, Danilo's current club.Madrid are currently training in LA, which would help smooth the final stages of the deal. City boss Pep Guardiola has been an admirer of Danilo since coming up against the Brazilian while in charge of Bayern Munich. Should Danilo join City in the next week, he could make his debut against his former club. City signed Walker from Tottenham for £45m last week, meaning he will also face his former club in Nashville.</blockquote>
