Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has insisted that, “anything can happen” in the race to sign Kylian Mbappe.

Real Madrid have reportedly agreed a world-record £161m (€180m) transfer fee with Monaco for the player, but Guardiola says City could still hijack the deal.

City’s spending has already topped £200m in the current transfer window, but Guardiola says they still have money to compete with the La Liga giants for the player.

“Madrid doesn’t have more than Manchester City has,” Guardiola said in Spanish, translated by a City representative at his press conference.

“There’s a lot of teams that are playing in the Champions League that are in the Premier League.

“Players are always important and we always try to get the best players possible. Abu Dhabi came in and they invested in the team and over the past few years we’ve climbed to the top.

“We’ve come a long way but in order to get to the level of Barcelona and Real Madrid we just need time.”

Guardiola added: “The player is still at Monaco – still on that team.

“Anything can happen – we are still looking at a lot of other players, but he is still on that team.”
