Manchester City's £200m plunge: Premier League leaders want Erling Haaland AND Jack Grealish to replace Sergio Aguero as Pep Guardiola looks to make major splash this summer

Manchester City plan to make a major splash this summer with attempts to land both Erling Haaland and Jack Grealish.

Sportsmail understands the Borussia Dortmund striker and Aston Villa captain are top of City's transfer wishlist as Pep Guardiola gears up to freshen his squad. The pair would be expected to cost close to £200 million — a strong display of intent by a club on the verge of sealing a third Premier League title in four seasons.

City were preparing to sign a new striker before Monday's announcement that record goalscorer Sergio Aguero will depart when his contract expires in June after 10 years' service.
