The Blues are among the host of the European elite in the hunt for the Norwegian forward who has been in red-hot form for Der BVB.

It's also reported that City got ahead of Manchester United when it came to capturing Joao Cancelo.
The Portuguese full-back signed a bumper extension for the Blues on Tuesday which will see him stay at the club until at least 2027.
In light of the deal, the Daily Mail reported that Manchester United passed on Gary Neville's recommendation to sign the creative defender and with Ed Woodward having now departed
