According to Foot Mercato, Milos Kerkez was the top target for Manchester City for the left-back position this summer, and they held talks with the player and his representatives.
However, they have been forced to look elsewhere as Kerkez has made up his mind about joining Liverpool in the ongoing transfer window.

Manchester City are looking at other alternatives, and Wolves’ Rayan Ait-Nouri has emerged as a viable option for Guardiola’s team this summer.
