Man City target Leicester's Chillwell to replace Mendy

Manchester City are being linked with Ben Chilwell from Leicester City.

According to the Evening Standard, Pep Guardiola is growing frustrated with Benjamin Mendy.

The player is great when he plays, but he has suffered so many injury problems since joining City last summer.

And Guardiola believes he needs someone who can be backup and a replacement for Mendy when he is injured.

Chilwell would fit the bill. The 22-year-old has started 22 Premier League games for Leicester this term.

But he would be expensive, given he is young and English.
