LEONARDO BONUCCI has become an option for Manchester City but could face competition from Paris Saint-Germain.

City are looking to add a central defender after the exit of Vincent Kompany.


Leicester City defender Harry Maguire is their top choice, but they face fierce competition from Manchester United for his signature.

The Foxes have quoted the Manchester clubs £100million for the 26-year-old England international.

But if they decide not to shell out a world record fee for a defender to bag Maguire, a much cheaper option will be Bonucci.

The future of the 32-year-old is unclear after the imminent arrival of Ajax skipper Matthijs de Ligt.

New Juve boss Maurizio sari will have five central defenders at his disposal and could be asked to balance the books after another huge outlay.

The French champions have enquired about the experienced stopper and are prepared to offer him over £6million-a-year in wages to move to France, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.
