Everton have slapped a £50million asking price on Stones whilst Schalke winger Sane could move for a fee in the region of £42m.

Speaking after City's 6-5 penalty win over Borussia Dortmund, the Spaniard said: "Sane is a player from Schalke. If he comes, we'll be happy. If he stays, I'll be happy for the Schalke fans."

Guardiola was also coy on Stones although did admit that they will try to sign him.

"It's the same answer for Sane - he's a player for Everton.

"Everyone knows we're going to try but I don't know what's going to happen."

Stones flew out with the rest of the Everton squad on Thursday as they embark on a two-match tournament in Germany but the England international is thought to be keen on signing for City sooner rather than later.

If City do splash out £50m for Stones, he will become the most valuable British footballer just eclipsing the £49m City paid Liverpool for Raheem Sterling.

Guardiola recently completed a £10m deal to land exciting Colombian starlet Marlos Moreno.
