Manchester City are interested in Italy international left-back Andrea Cambiaso as Pep Guardiola plans for a youthful revamp of his defence.
The Premier League champions are not yet close to a deal for the Juventus player but he is a third defensive target for City.
They have agreed a fee with Palmeiras for 18-year-old Brazilian centre-back Vitor Reis and are closing in on a £33m move for 20-year-old Uzbekistan international Abdukodir Khusanov.
And City also like Cambiaso, a 24-year-old who joined Juventus from Genoa in 2022 and who has won 13 caps for Italy.
Manager Pep Guardiola has tended to use Josko Gvardiol as his first-choice left-back over the past year, though the £77m Croatian was signed as more of a central defender.
Nathan Ake and Rico Lewis can also play there, though the Dutchman is more of a central defender and the Englishman a versatile player who can operate at right-back and in midfield.
While City are trying to bring in younger defenders, they could lose captain Kyle Walker, who wants to explore the option of a move abroad and is a target for AC Milan.
In addition, City want Eintracht Frankfurt forward Omar Marmoush as their January spending is set to top £100m, even if they do not get Cambiaso.
