Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva admits he's a fan of Lyon ace Tanguy Ndombele.

The France international is being linked with a January move to City.

City boss Pep Guardiola missed out on midfield targets Fred and Jorginho, who opted for moves to Manchester United and Chelsea respectively in the summer.

And Bernardo, who spent three seasons in Ligue 1 with Monaco, is well aware of Ndombele's talents.

"The defensive midfielder, Ndombele, was very good," the Portugal international said. "He's a really good player."
