Manchester City are allegedly planning to launch a big-money bid for Monaco star Thomas Lemar.
Sky Blues boss Pep Guardiola is seeking another forward who can play out wide and has identified the France international as one of his top summer targets, according to The Telegraph.
Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal have been strongly linked with Lemar in the past, with the latter having a £90m offer rejected last year.
City are yet to confirm how much they are willing to shell out on the 23-year-old, but word of their interest is likely to put other suitors on high alert.
Guardiola, who is close to guiding City to the Premier League title, is also expected to sign Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Fred this summer.
