Man City boss Guardiola on Real Madrid target Brahim Diaz: We've spoken to him...

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola insists there's no plans to sell Brahim Diaz.

The Spanish whizkid has been linked with Real Madrid this week - and is also a long-term target for Barcelona.

Guardiola said: "We want Brahim. We want him here. But today the market is the market, and perhaps it can not be controlled. We talked to him and we know the commitment he has with this club. He is happy and his family too, but let's see, we will try to keep him here.

"It depends on the desire of the player to keep them or not, why Manchester City if it is the case makes an effort for them to stay. Of course we want them for us.

"I am not a coach who is involved in this type of business, it is Ferran (Soriano) and Txiki (Begiristain)."
