Manchester City are interested in RB Leipzig striker Christopher Nkunku.
BILD says the reigning Premier League champions have stolen a march on other top European clubs looking to the 23-year-old.
They are ready to enter negotiations and have made an approach as to the striker's availability, with no buy-out clause in his current deal.
Real Madrid, Juventus and his former club Paris Saint-Germain have all been linked with Nkunku.
The French striker has been in eye-catching form for the Bundesliga outfit this season, scoring 11 goals in 17 appearances across all competitions.
That included a hat-trick at the Etihad back in September, where his impressive finishing was on show during Leipzig's 6-3 defeat.
