Robbie Cundy is on the verge of joining recently-relegated Barnsley as he undergoes a medical ahead of a three-year deal, Bristol Live understands.
The centre-back has turned down the Robins' contract offer, which expires at the end of this month despite breaking through into the first-team towards the second half of last season.
Bristol City had a deal on the table before the end of last campaign following his impressive run of form after being forced to wait nearly three years to make his Robins full debut in the 1-0 victory away at Blackburn in March.
