Manchester City are prioritizing Newcastle United's Bruno Guimaraes as they look for a midfielder but are also looking at Bayern Munich's Joshua Kimmich and Aston Villa's Douglas Luiz, as has been reported by AS.
The aim is to sign somebody who can act as a companion for Rodri, who has long been established as a key player in Pep Guardiola's side. Speaking about Guimaraes in a press conference, Guardiola said: "Exceptional holding midfielder; aggressive, with the ball he has pause, in set pieces he is aggressive. Now Newcastle wants to grow and I am quite sure that it is part of their project for the next few years, definitely."
AS claim that City have already made contact with the 26-year-old's entourage in order to get things moving in their attempts to sign him. Man City are even willing to pay the Brazil international's €117m release clause and could look to turn that into three payments of just over €39m, although there is expected to be plenty of competition to sign him.
Liverpool and Chelsea have also made efforts to sign Guimaraes in the past and are expected to return for him in the summer, while Manchester United could also make a move. Paris Saint-Germain are also interested while Guimaraes dreams of playing for Barcelona, although they only have €80m and would need to offload players to sign him.
Kyle Walker's decline led to him being cast aside by Pep Guardiola, before he joined AC Milan in January. Since then, it has been Matheus Nunes and Rico Lewis that have operated at right-back, but Man City are keen for a specialist to be brought in during the summer.
