Manchester City are reportedly interested in signing Juventus full-back Alex Sandro.
The 24-year-old joined the Italian champions from Porto in the summer and has produced a number of impressive displays.
He came up against the Citizens in the Champions League earlier this week, and set up the winning goal for Mario Mandzukic in a 1-0 win for the Old Lady.
According to the Manchester Evening News, City have made a bid of €40m (£28m) for the Brazilian defender, but Juventus are thought to be unwilling to do business.
Sandro had spent four seasons at Porto before completing his move to Juventus in August.
