Manchester City are lining up a summer move for Bayern Munich midfielder Joshua Kimmich.

The Germany international is expected to leave Bayern at the end of the season.

Mundo Deportivo says City and Barcelona have been in contact with Kimmich in recent months.

However, Barca's trail is going cold with Xavi's resignation, with the coach the main driver of their interest.

In contrast, City manager Pep Guardiola is eager for a reunion after signing and working with Kimmich at Bayern.
