Manchester City 'join Chelsea in the race for Leicester defender Ben Chilwell' with Pep Guardiola ready to swoop should he become available at the right price

Manchester City have joined Chelsea in the race to sign Leicester City left-back Ben Chilwell, according to The Telegraph.

Blues boss Frank Lampard is keen on signing the 23-year-old but Pep Guardiola could be set to rival the west London club once the transfer window reopens this summer.

Guardiola has played Benjamin Mendy the most at left back, with Oleksandr Zinchenko also filling in, but the Spaniard is keen to strengthen the position with the capture of Chilwell.

However, the Foxes are said to value Chilwell higher than they did Harry Maguire, who was sold to Manchester United for £80million last summer.
