Man City jump into battle for Roma attacker Cengiz Under

Manchester City have joined the battle for AS Roma attacker Cengiz Under.

The Daily Express says City boss Pep Guardiola has been impressed by reports he has received on the 21-year-old who is one of the lowest paid players in the Roma first team squad.

He is open to a move to the Premier League and has been watched by Tottenham, Arsenal and Chelsea in the last couple of months since growing unsettled in the Italian capital.

Under, who is rated at around £50 million by Roma, is under contract for another four years and there is no sign of a pay rise which is leaving the door open for Guardiola to make his move.

Bayern Munich are considering him as a replacement for ex Chelsea star Arjen Robben who has announced he is retiring at the end of the season.
