Manchester City have reportedly instructed scouts to monitor RB Salzburg striker Patson Daka as a potential replacement for Sergio Aguero.

Aguero’scontract is set to expire at the end of the season, with any extension yet to be agreed, and Citymight face the prospect of needing another senior striker to replace their all-time record goalscorer this summer.

The likes of Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe have been linked as long-term replacements for Aguero, but now it’s reported that Haaland’s replacement at RB Salzburg, Daka, is also interesting City.

90min say City have been alerted to the form of 22-year-old Daka, who scored 27 goals in all competitions last season.

The report adds around 20 other clubs in Europe are tracking Daka, but City are keen to sign at least one striker next summer, regardless of whether Aguero extends his contract.
