Manchester City reportedly held off competition from Premier League rivals Liverpool to secure a deal for Fluminense teenager Kayky.
The 17-year-old has scored twice and registered one assist in eight appearances for his Brazilian club, having made his professional debut in March.
Man City have not officially confirmed a deal for the Brazilian, but it has been widely reported that Pep Guardiola's side have secured his signature, with a move due to take place in January 2022.
According to Globo Esporte, Liverpool were also interested in the teenager, with the Reds contacting his representatives to discuss a potential switch to Anfield.
However, the report claims that Jurgen Klopp's side never made a formal offer for the youngster and have now missed out on a deal to their English rivals.
Man City could allegedly end up paying as much as £21.5m for Kayky due to various add-ons.
