Bought for €100,000 in Belarus a year and a half ago, Khusanov is now worth €12 million, according to Transfermarkt.
At 20 years of age, it is clear that he has made a lot of progress with the Sang et Or, and a sale could bring RC Lens several tens of millions of euros.
Now, with Manchester City as a likely buyer, the potential windfall is even greater. According to Foot Mercato this Friday, the two clubs have reached an agreement worth €50 million to complete the transfer of Khusanov.
A very handsome sum, which would have scared off the competition, with Tottenham and Newcastle interested at the start of the winter transfer window.
Flashscore France can also confirm City's interest in the RC Lens player. According to our information, the English club have been in contact with Lens in recent hours. The Citizens' offer is as follows: €40 million + €10 million in bonuses (amounting to £41m total).
The bonuses will be obtained if City qualify for the Champions League and the player plays 65% of matches for the English team.
According to our sources, this proposal will be accepted by the Lens management in the next few hours.
Khusanov has turned a corner with Lens this season. Will Still has made him one of his mainstays, and the player has featured from the start of the season, driving up his market value.
Although Manchester City were the quickest off the mark, other major European clubs, such as Real Madrid, were also keen.
There is no doubt that the centre-back will be interesting to watch in the Premier League with Pep Guardiola as a coach.
