Manchester City are interested Kevin De Bruyne this summer as they rebuild their squad and get younger.

De Bruyne was sold by Chelsea to Wolfsburg for £18 million and has scored nine goals in 25 Bundesliga appearances.

Ayoze Pérez, the 21-year-old Newcastle United striker, is also on City’s radar. At the weekend John Carver, the Newcastle manager, claimed he had “a good chat with Brian Kidd [assistant manager] at Man City about him”.
