Manchester City have reportedly identified San Lorenzo defender Nicolas Fernandez Mercau as a potential transfer target.
Having already signed Julian Alvarez from River Plate, the Premier League giants have continued to be linked with several other South American players.
According to TNT Sports, City are giving consideration to making a move for San Lorenzo defender Fernandez Mercau.
The 22-year-old has spent the early stages of his professional career with his current club, but he has only made 24 first-team appearances in the first team.
Fernandez Mercau can play at left-back, an area which Pep Guardiola has sometimes found problematic, as well as further down that flank.
The player has just under two years remaining on his contract at Estadio Pedro Bidegain.
