Manchester City striker Nolito has been spotted in Spain ahead of a potential transfer.
The Spanish international only moved to the Etihad last summer, completing a £13.7million move from Celta Vigo.
He made a good start to his career in England, but since the turn of the year, has struggled for opportunities.
Since his arrival at Manchester City he has made just 19 appearances in the Premier League, scoring four goals.
He has since been linked with a move away from Manchester City, with Deportivo la Coruna and Celta Vigo being linked.
However the forward was spotted yesterday in Spain speaking to Oscar Arias, Sevilla’s sporting director, close to the clubs Sanchez Pizjuan stadium.
Is Nolito set to return to #LaLIga?

It is claimed that Nolito could move to the South of Spain on a season long loan, similar to the deal that took Samir Nasri to Sevilla last summer.
He could be joined by Man City teammate Jesus Navas, who has been released by the club on the expiry of his contract.
