Pep Guardiola will look to sign a pair of full-backs at Manchester City in the summer, according to SPORT.
The aforementioned outlet have drawn up a list of targets for the incoming City boss – consisting of the likes of Aymeric Laporte, John Stones, Ilkay Gundogan and Paul Pogba.
But there are two new names in the mix, with Guardiola reportedly keen on Arsenal’s Hector Bellerin and Bayer Leverkusen Wendell.
Bellerin, a former La Masia product, has established himself as Arsenal’s first-choice right-back and is adept going forward as well as having defensive qualities.
Pablo Zabaleta, while a fan favourite at City, has shown signs of decline this season and could be set for a move away in the summer. 21-year old Bellerin is familiar with the style of play and attributes Pep Guardiola demands and despite outlining his intentions to stay in North London,a transfer wouldn’t be out of question.
Furthermore, City have also struggled on the left side of defence and have now been linked with Wendell; a 22-year old who has been one of Leverkusen’s top performers this season.
What is clear is that there will be major changes at City under Pep Guardiola’s regime.
