Manchester City are monitoring Brighton's winger Minta, who had bids from Liverpool rejected at £60m. A potential deal is complicated by the player’s injury which could keep him out for 2-3 months.

Manchester City are keeping a close watch on Yankuba Minta, the 22-year-old Gambian winger currently at Brighton. According to City Xtra, the Premier League champions view him as a potential addition to their attacking options.

Previously, Liverpool showed significant interest in the Brighton forward, only for the Seagulls to reject two formal offers from the Merseysiders, reported to be £50 million and £60 million. As of now, City have not submitted any official inquiries but have kept Minta on their shortlist as they weigh up their options.

With the anticipated departures of Savinho and Omar Marmush, City are considering how best to strengthen their flank. Meanwhile, negotiations are ongoing for Palmeiras winger Allan.

However, any potential move for Minta is complicated by the player's fitness. He recently underwent surgery during pre-season and is expected to be sidelined for 2 to 3 months.
