Midfield is set to see a big overhaul with the likes of Ilkay Gundogan and Bernardo Silva both set to take on new challenges at the end of this campaign.
However another position will be in the centre of defence with Aymeric Laporte reportedly wanting to leave the club.
So if Laporte leaves that would leave City short of a left-sided centre back and reliable journalist Fabrizio Romano has revealed who the club want to bring in next summer.
Apparently Guardiola is a big fan of the Croatian international and he is on the Manchester City list however it is deemed to be an open race for his signature as Liverpool asked about his availability in January whilst big spenders Chelsea have been keen on him since last summer.
The 21-year-old impressed in the 2022 World Cup as Croatia managed to secure third-place and he even scored against Manchester City in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 tie.
