Man City are a step ahead of their rivals in the chase for Jamal Musiala this summer.
Musiala’s contract runs until 2026, but he could well be on his way out of the Bundesliga club this summer, with a move to the Premier League a strong possibility.
The 21-year-old attacking midfielder was born in Germany but grew up in west London, but made the decision to choose Germany over England as an international when he was 17.
Liverpool, Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain are among the other clubs keeping an eye on developments.
