City expressed an interest in bringing Juventus defender Leonardo Bonucci to the Premier League in the summer, but the Italian club stood firm amid intense interest.

The 29-year-old is widely regarded as one of the best centre-backs in world football and, with Vincent Kompany’s increasing injury concerns, Guardiola may feel that he needs to strengthen that area.

According to the Telegraph, Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is willing to spend a world-record £60m on the Italian defender, which is likely to encourage a response from City, who can use their participation in the Champions League as a counter against their rivals.
