Manchester City are reportedly prepared to rival Manchester United in the race to sign Jadon Sancho and Jack Grealish.

Over the past five months, City have faced a period of uncertainty after being banned from participating in European competitions for two years.

However, after they successfully appealed the punishment, the Premier League outfit are now in a position where they can make significant additions in the summer.

According to The Express, City are ready to make bids for Sancho and Grealish of Borussia Dortmund and Aston Villa respectively.

Their clubs could be prepared to cash in on their services in order to balance the books in light of the coronavirus pandemic.

City would face competition from neighbours Manchester United, who have continually been linked with the pair since the turn of the year.
