Manchester City have a future plan to sign Arsenal forward Bukayo Saka, according to reports.
Saka was part of the England squad that reached the quarter-finals of this winter's World Cup, eventually being knocked out by France. During the tournament the 21-year-old stole the show in the Three Lions' opening game against Iran by scoring a brace.
He would score his third goal of the World Cup against Senegal in the round of 16 as the Three Lions breezed past their African opponents. For Arsenal, Saka has become a regular fixture in Mikel Arteta's team and this season has scored five goals and notched six assists in 20 appearances.

The Englishman's form for both club and country has now caught the eye of Pep Guardiola, according to 90min. City are reportedly becoming more confident of signing Saka due to the star having failed to agree a new deal at the Emirates Stadium. His current contract at Arsenal expires in 2024 and the Blues are looking to swoop in should he fail to secure a new deal at the club.
Elsewhere, new reports have suggested that City are willing to offer Croatia defender Josko Gvardiol a significantly better deal in order to sign him ahead of Real Madrid. Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla claims that the Blues are willing to offer RB Leipzig £113.5million for the centre-back.
Guardiola's men are said to rate the 20-year-old highly and are willing to offer him double his current salary in order to tempt him to move to the Etihad Stadium. Plenty of Europe's top clubs are also thought to be interested in the Croatian including Bayern Munich, Inter Milan and Juventus.
