According to the mentioned source, Lucas Hernandez is Pep's top target. It is not the first time that City are eyeing the youngster.
They were already last summer interested in him but Gil Marin assured that Atleti turned down City's offer for the Frenchman. Now they want to give it another try and are keen to lure him this summer again.
'The Independent' is sure that City have made a €23 million offer for the youngster and Simeone is considering to let him go.
Lucas Hernandez is just 20 years old and has been playing since 2015 for Atleti's first team.
