Man City face Premier League competition for £30million transfer target

Reis will cost over £30million and has been eyed by several other Premier League clubs including Wolves.

Wolves have recently completed the signing of Reims defender Emmanuel Agbadou from Reims for £16.6m.

Teenager Reis has emerged through the R10 Academy, which is run by former Brazil international Robinho, who spent two years at Man City himself.

Reis has represented the Brazil under-16s and under-17s, captaining both sides and playing in the final of the Copa do Brasil under-17 competition.

City are in need of reinforcements after an injury-hit and underwhelming start to the season.
