Last week, City boss Pep Guardiola reiterated the need for a smaller squad saying leaving players out is “not healthy” and that he “cannot create a good atmosphere to compete”.

Tottenham have been in talks to sign winger Savinho, but sources have told BBC Sport that City don’t want to sell the Brazilian unless they receive a fee worth considering.

Goalkeeper Ederson has been heavily linked with a move to Galatasaray and the 32-year-old missed the opening game victory over Wolves because of illness.

It is understood the Turkish champions have also reached out to City expressing an interest in signing defender Manuel Akanji.

However, a sale would only be sanctioned if the offer is right and the 30-year-old Swiss international indicates a desire to leave Etihad Stadium.

Championship side Wrexham have agreed a deal worth up to £8m to sign City defender Callum Doyle.

The transfer window closes on Monday 1 September at 19:00 BST.
