Pep Guardiola is reportedly keen to sign the youngster Rafael Leao at a high price, according to the Daily Mail, which has picked up some details from Tuttomercato. The Skyblues want to improve their attacking options following the departure of Sterling and Gabriel Jesus. They are ready to fight against Chelsea, Manchester United and PSG for the player. The winger would have to spend around €120m to sign him in January. That would make the Portuguese winger City's most expensive recruit just ahead of Jack Grealish by a few million.
