Manchester City chiefs are ready to test the resolve of Inter Milan for Romelu Lukaku.
The Athletic says City are drawing up a shortlist of striker transfer targets in the event Sergio Aguero decides against signing new terms.
Erling Braut Haaland (Borussia Dortmund), Harry Kane (Tottenham) and Lautaro Martinez (Inter Milan) are all on City's shortlist. However, it is Lukaku the club's management team favour most.
Lukaku's Manchester United background won't be a problem for City's directors - if they can convince Inter to sell.
And the Nerazzurri could be forced to cash in given the financial problems of owners Suning.
