Galatasaray are also in the race to sign Mangala and have made the France international a summer transfer priority, a source close to the Lions told Turkish-Football.

The Istanbul giants would simply be unable to match the €30 million asking price due to FFP restrictions as well according to Marca.

City are keen on selling Mangala this summer according to the Manchester Evening News.

The 26-year-old failed to settle in at City after making a £32 million transfer (BBC) from Porto in 2014.

Mangala has two years remaining on his current deal with City.
