Man City loan Caicedo to Sporting

Ecuadorian striker Felipe Caicedo is being loaned by Manchester City to Sporting Lisbon, the Portuguese club said on Thursday.
The agreement is subject to the 20-year-old passing a medical examination in the Portuguese capital.
Caicedo was headhunted aged just 17 from his native country by Swiss club FC Basel in 2005. He joined City in January last year from Basel for seven million euros - one of the highest transfers paid in the Swiss league.
Sporting kick off their season next Wednesday when they face Dutch club FC Twente in a Champions League 3rd round qualifying fixture.
