Manchester City are reportedly interested in signing Paris Saint-Germain attacker Desire Doue this summer.
The 19-year-old has been in outstanding form for PSG this season following his arrival from Rennes in August 2024, scoring 13 goals and registering 12 assists in 46 appearances for the French giants in all competitions.
Doue has three goals and three assists in the Champions League this season, with Luis Enrique's side in the semi-finals of the competition, preparing to battle Arsenal for a spot in the final against Barcelona or Inter Milan.
According to Fichajes, Man City are huge admirers of Doue, with the English club's head coach Pep Guardiola determined to bring him to the Etihad Stadium during this summer's transfer window.
Guardiola allegedly views him as the ideal player to fit into his system, but Man City are likely to face intense competition for his signature, with a number of other Premier League clubs said to be keen.

PSG 'interested' in summer deal for Doue
Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea are also believed to be keeping a close eye on his situation, while PSG will fight against his departure, viewing him as one of the best young talents in world football.
Doue penned a five-year deal upon his arrival last summer, and it is incredibly difficult to imagine a move being sanctioned in the upcoming market, especially with PSG emerging as one of the best teams in European football.
However, Doue was heavily linked with a move to the Premier League earlier in this career, and it is understood that the Frenchman is keen to make the switch to England's top flight at some stage in the future.
A recent report claimed that PSG would not listen to offers of under €300m (£256m) for the forward, so it is almost impossible to see him being sold this summer, even if he expresses a desire to talk with Man City.

Could Man City really sign Doue this summer?
It is incredibly difficult to imagine a scenario which leads to PSG selling Doue this summer, unless a truly remarkable offer arrives.
Doue could play in the Premier League in the future, but after such a promising campaign in France, it would be a shock to see the Ligue 1 champions enter into negotiations over a departure.
As a result, Man City may have to look elsewhere to boost their attack for the 2025-26 campaign, while the Citizens are also seeking a replacement for Kevin De Bruyne, who will end his long association with the club this summer.
