Chelsea and Manchester City are leading the race to sign Barcelona's 18-year-old Spanish midfielder Dro Fernandez, who has a £5.1m (6m euros) release clause in his contract

Galatasaray, Napoli, Juventus and clubs in Saudi Arabia are monitoring Portugal midfielder Bernardo Silva, 32, who is in the final year of his deal with Manchester City and yet to agree an extension.

Manchester City are preparing to make an offer for Crystal Palace and England centre-back Marc Guehi, 25, before the end of the January transfer window, but are unlikely to meet Palace's asking price of above £35 million.

Manchester City are interested in signing 21-year-old Brentford and Italy Under-21 right-back Michael Kayode.

Manchester City are confident they will sign Guehi in the coming days, beating rivals Liverpool to his signature.
