Manchester City are reportedly in talks to sign 17-year-old's Savio and Yan Phillipe from Atletico Mineiro.

Manchester City are reportedly in talks to sign Atletico Mineiro teenagers Savio and Yan Phillipe.

The Citizens have recruited a number of South American talents over the years, with River Plate's Julian Alvarez the latest name to make the switch to the Etihad Stadium, and Pep Guardiola's side have now identified two more youngsters as stars for the future.

According to 90min, City are in talks over summer moves for 17-year-old's Savio and Phillipe, with the Premier League giants already agreeing a £5m fee to sign the former.

The reports adds that a deal has already been agreed in principle for winger Savio – also known as Savinho – to join PSV Eindhoven on loan for the 2022-23 campaign.

City are also interested in signing Savio's teammate Phillipe, who is regarded by the Citizens as one of the brightest young midfield prospects in Brazil.

Phillipe has been a standout performer at Under-14, Under-15 and Under-17 level for Atletico Mineiro, while Savio has already made 23 senior appearances for the Brasileiro champions.
