According to reports in British media, the two clubs have reached an agreement on a fee of 53 million pounds ($67.07 million) for the 25-year-old.
"The situation is resolved, he (Nunes) is signing for Manchester City," O'Neil told reporters ahead of Wolves' trip to Crystal Palace on Sunday.
Nunes, who has 11 caps, moved to Wolves from Sporting last August for a club-record fee reported to be around 45 million euros ($48.78 million).
Then a big club came calling and players want to play for Manchester City.
