Alexis Sanchez has been strongly linked with City since the transfer window opened at the start of the month. Lombardo has confirmed our interest in the Chilean star but there is also confirmed interest from Man United, Barcelona and two Italian clubs thought to be Inter Milan and Juventus.

With all the interest in him from the biggest clubs in Europe, do City stand a chance of getting their man? Our spending power and the offer of Champions League football gives us a good chance, but you have to admit if Barcelona or United agree a fee it would be difficult to convince him to come here over them.

What do you think? Will City get their man?
