Manchester City will reportedly step up their efforts to sign Brighton & Hove Albion defender Marc Cucurella if Oleksandr Zinchenko leaves this summer.

Manchester City are reportedly set to increase their efforts to sign Brighton & Hove Albion defender Marc Cucurella.

The Spaniard only arrived on the South coast last summer, with Brighton paying Getafe £15.4m to bring the player to the Premier League.

However, with Oleksandr Zinchenko potentially making a move to the English capital to join Arsenal, Cucurella could be targeted by the Premier League champions as the Ukrainian's replacement.

According to The Sun, Man City are set to step up their efforts to sign the left-back this summer, although Brighton's asking price could prove to be a stumbling block.

The Seagulls are reportedly looking to secure a fee in the region of £50m for the 23-year-old, but City are keen to bring that price down.

With Cucurella linked with a move away from the Amex Stadium, Brighton are looking to enter talks over an improved contract for the Spain international.
