Man City make Benfica contact for Florentino Luis

Manchester City have joined the big club scramble for Benfica whiz Florentino Luis.

The 19 year-old is regarded as the next big thing at Benfica after this season's emergence of Joao Felix.

Goal says City are in contact with Benfica, along with fellow heavy hitters Real Madrid and PSG.

Benfica president Luis Filipe Vieira, however, is desperate not to lose the teen and has referred all suitors to Luis' €60m buyout clause.

Interestingly, City chief Txiki Begiristain was in Portugal last week to see Benfica in Europa League action.
