Manchester City are pushing to sign Monaco striker Kylian Mbappe this summer.
City and Real Madrid are locked in a battle to sign Mbappe.
Spanish football expert Graham Hunter believes City are his most prominent English suitors.
“City are talking actively to Mbappe's representatives and saying City is the best placed to develop his career, where he could work with Pep Guardiola and be paid handsomely," he told Sky Sports News.
“Real Madrid, meanwhile, are wooing Mbappe's agents saying they will break the transfer record for this kid. Zidane, of course, has known Mbappe since he was 14.
“The battle is with Manchester City and they are persuasive and Mbappe is now thinking long and hard between London, Madrid, Paris and now Manchester. City are in that battle.
“At the moment it's hard to see him choosing Monaco over one of those, but none of clubs know who is favourite to sign this exceptional 18-year-old."
