He wrote: "You're beautiful my cousin." Man City fans now believe Silva's friendship with the 21-year-old could play a key role in ensuring any future move to the Etihad. Moreover, Man City have been missing some lethal attacking options after an injury to Sergio Aguero, which was followed by another to Gabriel Jesus. Aguero's contract with the Etihad-based outfit expires at the end of the current season. There are no talks of any contract extension as yet, with the Argentina international set to leave as a free agent next summer as things stand. Mbappe's Man City rumours thus gain credence, courtesy of the fact that the club possesses the financial muscle to make a move for arguably the most coveted 21-year-old in world football.
