Manchester City are currently chasing down Arsenal at the top end of the Premier League table
Manchester City have met with representatives of PSG star Ousmane Dembele regarding a potential future move, according to Sport. The winger could be a target for Pep Guardiola’s side down the line. His contract in France expires in the summer of 2028 meaning he has two years left to run down.
City are positioned in 2nd place in the Premier League table. They are seven points behind Arsenal with a game in hand. The North West outfit are back in league action this weekend away at West Ham as they aim to bounce back from their Champions League defeat to Real Madrid last time out.

The France international, who has 57 caps to his name, has made 122 appearances in all competitions for PSG, 27 of which have come this season. He has scored 53 goals from the wing.
