Manchester City are chasing Tottenham fullback Ben Davies.

The Sun says Pep Guardiola wants a left-back who can also play in the centre after missing out on Bayern Munich's Holger Badstuber.

Tottenham's Davies, 23, is behind Danny Rose in the pecking order at Spurs but is highly thought of at the Etihad.

He played as centre-back for Wales at the Euros last summer in a three-man defence after starting out as a full-back with Swansea.

City believe Davies can bolster their option for a title push in the second half of the season, with Guardiola looking for cover for injury-prone Vincent Kompany.

And Spurs will weigh up whether Davies can be replaced and if they should help rivals at the top of the league.
