Manchester City want to wrap up a deal for Ukrainian wonderkid Oleksandr Zinchenko, the "?Daily Express report.
Pep Guardiola doesn't officially take over the Etihad managerial reins until July 1st, but he has already begun his revolution.
The Spaniard is plotting to revamp the Sky Blues squad and, after capturing Ilkay Gundogan from Borussia Dortmund"? for £20m, he has set his sights on snapping up Zinchenko.
The talented teenager began his career with Shakhtar Donetsk, but he currently plies his trade for Russian Premier League side FC Ufa.
Ufa managed to avoid the drop this year and the trickster played his part by pulling the strings in midfield.
His promising performances have resulted in a call-up to the Ukraine squad for the European Championships and City want to poach him before his value skyrockets.
Zinchenko made his international bow against Spain last October and he grabbed his first goal for his country in a 4-3 friendly victory over Romania last month.
The 19-year-old's strike turned heads because it meant he became Ukraine's youngest ever goalscorer, eclipsing the record which was previously held by the iconic Andriy Shevchenko.
Ukraine co-hosted the previous European Championships but they failed to get out of their group.
They face an equally tough task progressing to the knockout stages in France as they will have to overcome Germany, Poland and Northern Ireland.
