Manchester City will reportedly make a £40 million-plus move for Borussia Dortmund's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang should they lose Sergio Aguero in the summer.

According to The Sun's Martin Lipton, having resigned themselves to the fact they won't be able to sign Barcelona's Lionel Messi or Ateltico Madrid's Antoine Griezmann, Aubameyang would be City's key target if they have to replace Argentina international Aguero.

The Sky Blues' chances of snapping up the Gabon international have improved recently, as previous front-runners Real Madrid have "cooled their interest" in Aubameyang, according to Lipton.
