Man City ready to move for Benfica defender Ruben Dias

Manchester City are ready to move for Benfica defender Ruben Dias.

City manager Pep Guardiola has expressed concern over his centre-half options this season after losing Vincent Kompany to Anderlecht last summer.

The London Evening Standard says Guardiola may've found a solution in Dias.

The 23 year-old stopper has a deal to 2024 with a buyout clause set at €100m.

Dias has been tracked by City scouts for the past two years.
