Manchester City are making plans to try and sign Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka and Borussia Dortmund’s Jude Bellingham.
The Premier League champions are looking for reinforcements as they aim to continue their domestic dominance under Pep Guardiola.
And the Etihad outfit could look to bolster their ranks with England youngsters Saka and Bellingham, who both caught the eye at the World Cup.
Saka, 21, netted three goals in Qatar, adding to his tally of four strikes and six assists in 14 Premier League matches for the table-topping Gunners this season.
Bellingham notched his first Three Lions goal in the opener against Iran, having struck three times in the Bundesliga and provided two assists in 15 outings in the German top flight for Dortmund.
The 19-year-old also bagged four Champions League goals as BVB set up a last-16 tie with Chelsea.
90min report that the England pair are top of Guardiola’s wish list after he agreed a two-year extension last month.
And the priority is to give the Catalan coach funds to strengthen his squad and provide more support to Erling Haaland, who is on course to become the Premier League’s top scorer this season.
