Manchester City are making a serious push for Malaga whizkid Brahim.
The Daily Mail says Barca are determined to sign a player they believe could be in their first team by the age of 16 and are lining up a fresh offer but City are prepared to fight them all the way.
They have been scouting Brahim for two years and manager Manuel Pellegrini is well aware of the buzz that surrounds the youngster at his former club. He hopes the cordial relationship between City and Malaga can prove decisive in convincing Brahim's family to move to England.
