Man City chase Croatia midfielder
Manchester City are ready to swoop for teenage Croatian midfielder Ante Ćorić, according to The Daily Mail.
The Daily Mail are today reporting that City are weighing up a £6 million bid for the 19-year-old Dinamo Zagrab player, but the Croatian club are believed to value Ćorić at closer to £10 million.
Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are all also thought to hold an ineterest in Ćorić, but City appear to be leading the chase for the young player's signature.
Ćorić is an attacking midfielder with a cultured passing style as well as a maturity beyond his years.
Despite still being in his teens, Ćorić has played 67 times in the Croatian top-flight and is a full international.
Currently on international duty at the UEFA European Championship in France, and decision on the two-cap Croatia international's future will likely have to wait until after the tournament.
With the Pep Guardiola revolution underway at Manchester City, Ćorić is the latest in a long line of players to be linked with a move to the Etihad.
Earlier this week, 29-year-old Celta Vigo forward Nolito was reported to have agreed personal terms on a £16 million move to the Etihad, and it appears that Guardiola is now turning his attention to adding to his midfield with an injection of youth and quality; Ćorić ticks both of those boxes.
