Joao Neves (Paris Saint-Germain)

According to Spanish news outlet Fichajes, City are preparing a £105m bid to try and sign Joao Neves. However, Paris Saint-Germain ideally do not wish to sell the Portugal international midfielder, but could money talk?

Ayyoub Bouaddi (Lille)

The Athletic journalist and transfer expert David Ornstein reports City are pushing hard to sign Ayyoub Bouaddi. Other clubs are also in the race but would rather send him back on loan to Lille, but the Cityzens would integrate him into their squad now.

Lille are thought to be asking for €100m (£85m) or more for his signature.

Jesus Rodriguez and Nico Paz (Como)

Transfer expert Ekrem Konur claims City and Arsenal have enquired over Jesus Rodriguez. Como are demanding between £39-48m for the winger.

Sportsboom also report that City are plotting a move for Nico Paz as a potential replacement for Bernardo Silva, who is out of contract this summer. However, Real Madrid's £8m buy-back clause could complicate their pursuit.

Heittor Vinicius (Palmeiras)

According to Brazilian news outlet ge, City have submitted an offer of £17.4m to Palmeiras for forward Heittor Vinicius, with the intention of loaning him back to Girona.
