Manchester City have a four-man short list to replace Carlos Tevez.

The Independent says City have listed the Bayern Munich striker Gomez as one of four targets as they move rapidly to rebuild their strike force after the departure of Tevez to Juventus.

An Italian and Spanish striker are also in City's sights - Seville's Alvaro Negredo and Roma's Pablo Osvaldo - and with the situation fluid on all players, the fourth individual in contention as the goalscorer City badly needed is Benfica's Oscar Cardozo, who has had a bitter falling out with the Portuguese club's manager and is definitely leaving the club. Benfica are demanding €17m (£14.5m) but would take €15m (£12.8m)
