John van 't Schip's team are reportedly on the verge of reeling in the Uruguayan striker as they continue their recruitment ahead of the 2015-16 campaign
The A-League transfer rumour mill is in full swing, with reports in Uruguay claiming Melbourne City will sign Bruno Fornaroli, subject to a successful medical.
Local outlet cambiodefrente.com claim the 27-year-old forward has travelled to England to undergo an examination at Melbourne City's sister club Manchester City.
The former Nacional player, who has appeared for Sampdoria and Panathinaikos in Italy and Greece respectively, would become City's fourth overseas player and potentially help to fill the attacking void left by retired centre-forward Josh Kennedy.
Nicknamed El Tuna, Fornaroli's most recent club was Uruguayan side Danubio, who sent him on loan to Figueirense of Brazil.
City, who have also been linked with former Stoke City goalkeeper Thomas Sorensen, have already signed Corey Gameiro, Steve Kuzmanovski and Ivan Franjic.
