Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola wants either Kylian Mbappe or Alexis Sanchez in mega-money deals this summer
According to reports, Guardiola is urging director of football Txiki Begiristain to sign either one of the two superstars before the season starts
PEP GUARDIOLA has urged Manchester City to sign either Alexis Sanchez or Kylain Mbappe after spending over £200million already this transfer window.
According to reports, the City boss believes they still have a chance of landing Sanchez for £50million or Mbappe for a world record £120m.
City have already paid top dollar for Bernardo Silva and Benjamin Mendy - with the latter arriving at the Etihad yesterday - transferring £95m into the Ligue 1 club's coffers.
Real Madrid are still front runners to land Mbappe and Arsenal are understood to be particularly interested.
And after making about £110m in transfers this year, Real are in a stronger financial position to make a bid for Mbappe.
It would be the icing on the cake and surely make City favourites for the Premier League title.
Sanchez is determined to keep playing Champions League football and was never on any of Barcelona's winning teams during his time at the Nou Camp.
And at the age of 28, the Chilean star wants to put himself in a position where he can win the competition.
Given Arsenal are in the Europa League this season, that looks unlikely to happen.
Mbappe has previously declared his desire to stay at AS Monaco next term, despite interest from Europe's biggest clubs.
The 18-year-old wants to stay and fight for the club after winning the Ligue 1 title last term.
