Manchester City want to sign Leeds United attacker Raphinha this summer, according to Italian journalist Gianluigi Longari.

Manchester City are reportedly ready to compete with Manchester United and Liverpool for the signature of Leeds United attacker Raphinha this summer.

The 24-year-old has impressed during his first season in the Premier League, scoring six times and contributing six assists in 26 outings for the Whites.

Man United and Liverpool have both recently been credited with an interest in the Brazilian, who still has more than three years left to run on his contract at Elland Road.

According to Italian journalist Gianluigi Longari, Man City have now joined the race for his signature, with Leeds seemingly facing a tough task to keep hold of the attacker.

Longari claims that there has not yet been a decision on Raphinha's future, but Marcelo Bielsa's side are desperate to keep hold of him in the upcoming market.

The South American netted eight times and registered seven assists in 36 outings for Rennes during the 2019-20 campaign before making the move to West Yorkshire.
