Manchester City reportedly want to sign Napoli centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly this summer but are not interested Bayern Munich's Thiago Alcantara.

Manchester City are reportedly interested in signing Napoli centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly this summer but are not expected to move for Bayern Munich's Thiago Alcantara.

City are allegedly in the market for another new central defender despite already securing a deal for Netherlands international Nathan Ake ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.

According to the Manchester Evening News, Pep Guardiola's side have not yet made an offer for Koulibaly but 'are interested' in bringing the Senegal international to the Etihad Stadium.

The same report, though, claims that Thiago is not a target for the former English champions.

The Citizens were thought to be ready to rival Liverpool for the Spain international, who is expected to leave the Allianz Arena this summer in search of pastures new.

City will take on French side Lyon in the quarter-finals of the Champions League on Saturday night.
