Manchester City are interested in signing Marseille defender Nicolas N'Koulou, according to reports.

Manchester City will reportedly bid for Marseille defender Nicolas N'Koulou as they look to bolster their back line.

N'Koulou has become a target because Liverpool defender Daniel Agger is deemed too expensive, according to the Daily Star.

The 22-year-old Cameroon international has only been at Marseille for one season but has built a reputation as a reliable, athletic defender.

City manager Roberto Mancini is believed to like N'Koulou because he can play in a number of different positions and thinks that his versatility could be a real asset to the squad.
