Barcelona Transfer News: Nico Gonzalez Targeted by Manchester City, Real Madrid

Manchester City and Real Madrid are reportedly leading the chase to sign Barcelona teenager Nico Gonzalez.

At just 14 years old, Gonzalez has attracted interest from clubs across Europe, although much will depend on the possibility of his choosing to quit the Spanish club's famed La Masia academy.

City look to be in prime position to land the youngster. His father, former Deportivo La Coruna player Fran, is a coach at the club, as noted by Toby Gannon of The Sun.

One of Barcelona's brightest talents, Nico González (14), will follow his father Fran (coach) to Manchester City next year.
