Manchester City considering move for Groningen defender Gabriel Gudmundsson?

Versatile Groningen defender Gabriel Gudmundsson is reportedly a target for Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola.

Gudmundsson started out as a central striker and a winger at Halmstads BK, before being moulded into a left-back in his two years at Groningen.

The 21-year-old has also occasionally been used further up the field and has contributed five assists in 16 Eredivisie starts this term.

According to Calciomercato, Man City are among a number of clubs weighing up a move for the Sweden Under-21s international at the end of the season.

Juve may supposedly make a bid for Gudmundsson should they lose Alex Sandro, while Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig and Napoli have also been linked.

Gudmundsson is under contract with Groningen until 2022, with the option of a further year.
