As Leroy Sane's move to Bayern Munich looks like a done deal, Manchester City have already started looking for the German's replacement. As reported by El Confidencial, Pep Guardiola is considering making a move for Real Sociedad's Mikel Oyarzabal. The winger has made a name for himself after a series of quality performances for the Spanish side. According to sources, Real Sociedad have put a price-tag of €75 million on the 22-year-old. It will be no issue for the giants of the English top-tier league.

Manchester City can bag Mikel Oyarzabal for â‚¬75m

Mikel Oyarzabal made it to the score-sheet for his national side when Spain thrashed Romania for a 5-0 win. Oyarzabal has already scored six goals and has assisted four times for Real Sociedad in 18 appearances this season. Oyarzabal is considered a perfect replacement of Sane as both the players prefer to play in the left flank. The Spaniard is lethal when it comes to finishing and scoring goals.
