City prepare 35 million euro bid for Kamara

Guardiola wants to put his team's defensive problems behind him. The defence is the weakest part of the Man City side and to reinforce it, he wants to do so with Boubacar Kamara.

'Le10 Sport' reported that the English side are willing to offer 35 million euros to get hold of the Marseille footballer.

Kamara is one of the most important players in the Marseille squad this season, a campaign which was ended prematurely.

The arrival of Andre Villas Boas has given the French defender more protagonism. He is one of French football's great young talents and he is just 20.

Despite the fact Marseille do not want to let the young defender go, the French club's financial problems when it comes to meeting FFP regulations means he could be forced to leave the Velodrome.

Man City are lying in wait as they are struggling for a good centre back. Only Aymeric Laporte has been up to the mark in recent seasons.
