Prior to Harry Maguire’s switch to Manchester United, Manchester City were believed to be interested in the England international.
Pep Guardiola admitted his side could not afford his asking price, which is why they ended their interest in the ex Leicester City defender.
Calciomercato reports the Premier League winners were also after Inter Milan star Milan Škriniar as the former Barcelona manager seems to ‘have a weakness’ for the Nerazzurri player.
It’s claimed Manchester City made an approach for the Slovakian in the summer, but Antonio Conte’s side blocked the exit door.
With Guardiola and City chasing domestic and European glory, it’s thought the English champions could return for Škriniar in January.
The report explains Inter will rejected any approaches for Škriniar, but they cannot be complacent of the fact that clubs are courting him.
