Manchester City chase Josko Gvardiol but RB Leipzig demand at least £86m

CITIZEN? RB Leipzig's Josko Gvardiol during the UEFA Champions League, Group A match at the Etihad Stadium, Manchester. 

Manchester City are exploring the possibility of signing Josko Gvardiol but RB Leipzig are wanting more than €100m (£86m) for the centre-back.
