Manchester City are watching Internacional youngster Bruno Fuchs.

Globo Esporte says City are having the defender scouted with the aim of potentially signing him this summer.

Fuchs, 20, broke into the Inter first team last season and is a member of Brazil's Olympics squad for this year's Tokyo Games.

Standing at 6ft 3in and boasting great acceleration, City chiefs believe Fuchs has all the attributes needed to succeed in English football.

For the moment, however, City's interest is stricly limited to a watching brief.
