Pep Guardiola has confirmed Manchester City are "still looking" to add to their 200 million pounds summer spending spree, but refused to comment on the possibility of hijacking Real Madrid's move for Kylian Mbappe.

City have been the major shoppers in the transfer market after splashing out a Premier League record total of £200m (223 million euros, $260 million) to bring Benjamin Mendy, Bernardo Silva, Kyle Walker, Ederson, Danilo and Douglas Luiz to the Etihad. But it remains likely that they will continue their haul after being strongly linked with moves for Arsenal frontman Alexis Sanchez and Monaco teenage striker Mbappe.
Mbappe has been on City's radar throughout the summer, although there have been strong suggestions in Spain that Real have agreed a record fee of $210 million for the 18-year-old.
Ahead of the International Champions Cup encounter against Real Madrid, in Los Angeles, Guardiola wasn't being drawn on either. "They are Monaco and Arsenal players, so nothing to say," he said. But he did confirm that City were still looking at options in the market, albeit he was coy on whether another striker was on the agenda. "We have two exceptional forwards in Gabriel (Jesus) and Sergio (Aguero), we'll see," he said.
