Manchester City are reportedly preparing a £50m (€56m) bid for Juventus right-back Joao Cancelo.

According to The Sun, which is running the story as an exclusive, City have pinpointed Cancelo to provide competition for Kyle Walker.

The newspaper explains he would replace Danilo, who could be Inter-bound as he wants regular first-team football.

The 25-year-old only joined Juve from Valencia last summer in a €40m deal, having spent the 2017-18 campaign on loan at Inter.
