Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United are all also said to have made early contact about his availability but City's interest is strongest. Atletico, however, have no desire to sell and are pointing any suitors to the keeper's €100 million (£86.7m) release clause, as they did when they successfully fended off interest in star forward Antoine Griezmann last summer.</blockquote>
