Atletico Madrid face a battle to keep hold of Saul Niguez this summer with Manchester City , Manchester United and Barcelona all keen on the midfielder.
Mirror Sport previously revealed the Atletico midfielder had emerged as City boss Pep Guardiola's No.1 transfer target this summer.
Atletico have slapped a £130m buy-out clause on Saul, who has been identified as a long-term replacement for Fernandinho at the Etihad.
The 24-year-old signed a new long-term contract with the Spaniards two years ago that will keep him at the club until June 2026.
