Manchester City’s bid to make it four Premier League titles in five years is set to begin this weekend and they have already bolstered their squad to be able to improve their chances.
The summer has been largely dominated by City’s business in the transfer window, with a £100m move for Jack Grealish being completed ahead of the Community Shield defeat to Leicester. However it’s the interest in Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane that has taken all the headlines in recent weeks.
The England captain is believed to have told Spurs that he wants to leave the club this summer in pursuit of trophies, with Pep Guardiola admitting his side’s interest in the striker in a recent press conference.

Tottenham are adamant they won’t let the star striker go unless their £150m asking price is met, with City unable to meet that after splashing the cash on Grealish. But with Kane yet to return to training after a fall-out and still keen to move on, a deal is still possible up until deadline day.
Spurs have got a history of selling on deadline day, with mega money deals for Dimitar Berbatov and Gareth Bale taking place in the past at the final hour of the summer window.
Elsewhere City have already signed Scott Carson as their third-choice goalkeeper once again, while they’ve also been linked with a move for Sporting CP left-back Nuno Mendes.
MEN Sport understands that the club currently hold no interest in the Portugal international for this summer and that move will not happen. Some players could leave the club however, with Bernardo Silva keen to move on for a new challenge while Gabriel Jesus has also been linked with a move away.
Silva is most likely to depart with some La Liga sides interested, although City won’t sell for less than what they deem as an acceptable offer while Jesus is unlikely to be allowed to leave unless a deal for Kane can be found.
