Man City 'target' summer move for Chelsea full-back Ben Chilwell and other transfer rumours

Chelsea defender Ben Chilwell is reportedly among a number of potential summer targets for Man City, should they need to replace Joao Cancelo.

The Portuguese international joined Bayern Munich in a shock deadline-day move, arriving on loan for the remainder of the campaign in a deal that can be made permanent at the end of the season for £61.6million. Reports of a training ground bust-up between the defender and Pep Guardiola, combined with the City manager's acceptance to let him leave so late in the window, hint that the aforementioned option may well be taken up.

That undoubtedly leaves the Blues short at left-back, with Nathan Ake - naturally a centre-back - currently the preferred choice while Sergio Gomez has failed to hit the ground running. As such, a potential replacement for Cancelo has become a priority for Guardiola, with Txiki Begiristain and his team set to scour the market between now and June.
