Manchester City have reportedly scouted and are ready to move for Espanyol full-back Aaron Martin, who has previously been linked with rivals Manchester United.
According to ESPN FC's Peter O'Rourke, the Citizens watched the Spaniard in the 1-0 win over Real Betis, and manager Pep Guardiola is now ready to make a transfer happen in January.
The Sky Blues lost Benjamin Mendy to injury early this season, and the defender is not expected to return before summer. City are in excellent form and need to capitalise, and the club is expected to add to its options in January.
