Man City battle PL trio to sign 6ft 5 colossus likened to Cafu, valued at €40m – Report

According to an exclusive report from 90min, Man City, Wolves, Everton and Leicester are on the hunt for Celtic colossus Kristoffer Ajer as the Sky Blues search for a towering centre-back who can plug gaping holes left by the absence of Fernandinho in his favoured defensive midfield position.

Ajer, who has started 28 games for the Hoops this season under manager Neil Lennon, playing a huge part in their title win after the SFA opted to halt the campaign, is now attracting interest from City and another trio of Premier League clubs – as well as from abroad courtesy of Paris-Saint Germain, Borussia Dortmund and AC Milan.
