Man City target RB Leipzig’s Diomande and Bournemouth striker Kroupi

City are also considering a move for AC Milan winger Rafael Leao, who could be available for £60 million.

The Cityzens bolstered their attack by signing Antoine Semenyo in January. They may only pursue a forward this summer if there are departures.

Man City likely to prioritise midfield additions

City could be set for a midfield revamp, with uncertainty surrounding the futures of Rodri, Nico Gonzalez and Mateo Kovacic. They have also confirmed Bernardo Silva’s exit this summer.

Man City have made Nottingham Forest ace Elliot Anderson their primary target.

Bayer Leverkusen’s Ibrahim Maza, Hertha Berlin wonderkid Kennet Eichhorn and Chelsea’s Enzo Fernandez are also under consideration.

City face competition from Manchester United and Arsenal for Anderson. However, it is now believed that they are in the pole position to sign him.

Anderson has been one of the best midfielders in the English top-flight, impressing with his defensive and ball-playing attributes.

He is expected to play a prominent role for England at this summer’s World Cup.

Anderson is reportedly valued in excess of £100m. He could become City’s most expensive signing if a deal goes through.
