Manchester City are planning an audacious bid to land Barcelona star David Villa.
Roberto Mancini's side have been relatively quiet in the transfer window so far, with the Italian regularly voicing concerns about a lack of investment at the Etihad.
But having missed out on the signature of former Arsenal star Robin Van Persie, who ended up across the city at Man United, the defending Premier League champions could now pull off the biggest deal of the window with a beat-the-deadline move for Spain’s all-time leading goalscorer.
City shocked the world in 2008 when they landed Brazil star Robinho on transfer deadline day and now it appears the club could be repeating that feat.
Villa, 30, spent most of last season injured after breaking a leg in the Club World Cup match against Al Sadd, but remains one of the world's leading strikers.
Barcelona would be reluctant to sell the former Valencia star but a bid of between £40-50million could clinch the deal.
City are looking to strengthen their forward line, with doubts about the length of time Sergio Aguero will be out for after picking up a knee injury on the opening day of the season.
There are also questions over the futures of Edin Dzeko and Mario Balotelli.
