Manchester City are set to move for another of England's most promising talents it is claimed today.

The Blues are reported to be joining the race to sign Everton defender John Stones.

The Mirror say Manuel Pellegrini fancies the 21 year-old, who Chelsea have already bid around £25 million for.

The same paper say City are still confident of landing top target Kevin De Bruyne before the end of the transfer window.

The young Belgian forward said yesterday he didn't know where his future lay, but the Etihad transfer gurus still believe they can get it.

However the Blues appear to have lost-out in another transfer battle.

He was widely reported to be set to sign on at the Etihad however the offer of a longer contract has said to have tipped the balance in favour of the London club.

Young striker Enes Unal, signed this summer from Bursasoir, appears set for a loan move.

The Guardian say Belgian side Genk are favourites to land him.

Whilst Devante Cole's days also look numbered.

The young striker, son of United legend Andy Cole, has been at City since he was 14 but is on trial at Birimingham with the Blues willing to accept £600,000 for him, according to the Star.
