Although the Premier League side had made the Gabon international a target last summer, Pep Guardiola has other players atop his wishlist this year
Manchester City are not currently exploring a deal for Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Goal understands.
Aubameyang was a target for City last summer, but like Juventus' Leonardo Bonucci, Athletic's Aymeric Laporte and Arsenal's Hector Bellerin, he is far from the top of Pep Guardiola's wishlist this time around.
City identified their top targets several months ago, and after signing Bernardo Silva from Monaco and Ederson from Benfica they are now working on deals for four full-backs.
