It's a dramatic reversal following Delph's refusal to join City after their first approach, but a picture has emerged which reportedly shows the England international arriving for his examination.

Villa might be left with no other option than to sell the 25-year-old thanks to the £8-million release clause in the four-year contract extension he signed in January.
Delph even went as far as to issue a statement to reaffirm his commitment to Villa after reports linked him with a transfer to Manchester.
"I'm aware there has been intense media speculation surrounding my future in the last 24 hours and I want to set the record straight," he said.
His departure could be twice as bad if Christian Benteke also leaves the Midlands side following reports suggesting Liverpool triggered the Belgian's £32.5 million release clause.
