Manchester City are yet to reach agreement with Porto over Spain Under-21 midfielder Nico Gonzalez.

Pep Guardiola would like to bring Gonzalez to Etihad Stadium as he tries to find adequate cover for Rodri, who is unlikely to play in the Premier League for the rest of the season.

However, they cannot agree over the price and until that changes, it will not happen.

There is also interest in Douglas Luiz, who had two years with City but never played a game for the club as he spent both seasons in Spain with Girona.

But again, City and Juventus cannot agree over the structure of any loan move for the former Aston Villa midfielder.
