Just hours after attending Arsenal's trophy parade on the streets of Islington following their FA Cup final win over Hull, the France international could conclude his anticipated deal to City later on Monday.
Sagna meets up with France's World Cup party later this week and wants his future decided before the tournament to ensure he heads to Brazil with a clear head. If everything goes according to plan, the right-back could even undergo his City medical on Monday ahead of agreeing to join Manuel Pellegrini's men.
It is understood Sagna will be offered a three-year deal worth around £150,000-per-week during today's discussions.
But the fact he looks set to become the latest Gunner to join City - following in the footsteps of Emmanuel Adebayor, Kolot Toure, Samir Nasri and Gael Clichy - will come as a major blow to Arsenal.
Arsenal fans at yesterday's parade made their feeling regarding Sagna crystal clear as they sang: 'We want you to stay'. However, Sagna's anger at the way his contract situation has been handled by Arsenal has played an integral role in his decision to quit the club.
