Manchester City could make a bid for Real Sociedad star Martin Zubimendi as early as next week.
Zubimendi was widely linked with a summer move to City's Premier League rivals Liverpool before ultimately opting against the move at the last minute.
The Spain international dramatically changed his mind about staying in San Sebastian, but the situation in the Basque Country has reportedly changed since then.
With Liverpool out of the running, City could now have no opposition in their pursuit of the 25-year-old as part of a big-spending month in Manchester.
Pep Guardiola is expected to make major investments in the coming weeks in a bid to revive his struggling team, and Zubimendi would be a major coup.
Zubimendi still has a £52million release clause in his contract, which City can afford, and the club are willing to back Guardiola to revive their title defense in 2025. According to reports from Football Insider, an offer could be made within days.
