Premier
League defending Champions Manchester City have entered the race to sign Wilfried
Bony from Swansea City, as per Daily Telegraph.
Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini has played last three League games without
any proper striker as all the first team strikers Sergio Aguero, Stevan Jovetic
and Edin Dzeko were out that time. However, Aguero and Dzeko are still out but Joveitc
has finally returned and fully fit to play.
The
big loss is Aguero who was performing exceptionally, he is still the top scorer
with 14 goals in the Premier League.
With
the Citizens are now back on track, they need a striker for the second half of
this season in order to continue their challenge for the Premier League title.
The
Ivory Coast international has been rated around £30million and City boss is
eyeing to splash that cash to solve the striking issues.
Guardian reported that City are still eyeing him strongly despite the Swans have denied to sell
their star striker.
Bony
has been exceptional since his move to the Welsh side last year. He has scored
33 goals in 69 games in all competitions.
Reports
have also linked Bony with Liverpool as they are also suffering in front of
goals.
