Man City have now reportedly made 'direct contact' with Pedro Neto's representatives as they plot a move for the Chelsea star.

Fabrizio Romano says that City are targeting a move for the Portuguese star should Spurs complete a move for Savinho.

However, Spurs also apparently see Neto as a back-up option if a deal for Savinho fails, while City's move for Neto will also depend on Chelsea's valuation for the 26-year-old.

Reijnders only joined City last summer in a deal worth £46.5m, and would reportedly be looking for at least £55m to consider allowing him to leave as they consider a move for 18-year-old Lille star Ayyoub Bouaddi.
