Last updated : 07 June 2007 By Ed
Former Thailand Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra's lawyer has said negotiations to take over Manchester City are progressing well.

"So far I learn that the deal is proceeding well," Nopaddon told AFP.

"(But) I can't give any details on this issue. Thaksin instructed me not to talk about this matter unless it's final.

"I think when the deal is concluded, we will have a press conference here (in Bangkok)."

Meanwhile the Mirror says unless a deal is done within 48 hours the club will call the talks off.
