  • LISTEN NOW: It's all starting! Ruben Amorim seems desperate… it is the last resort to publicly denounce your players

Manchester City are ready to bring in Juma Bah as their next January signing.

The 18-year-old Real Valladolid centre-back is likely to be loaned to Lens.

Bah has made 12 appearances for the LaLiga first team after breaking into the squad in September, on loan from AIK Freetong.

He also earned his first call-up to the Sierra Leone national team last May, although he is yet to make his international debut.

At 6ft 5in, Bah would become City's tallest player, ahead of Erling Haaland.

City have already added two defenders to their squad in this transfer window as Pep Guardiola looks to shore up his defensive line.

Firstly, they completed the signing of Abdukodir Khusanov from RC Lens in a deal worth £33m on Monday night.

The center back has signed a contract for four and a half years.

On Tuesday they confirmed the £29.4m signing of centre-back Vitor Reis from Brazilian club Palmeiras.

Reis, 19, is widely regarded as one of South America's most talented youngsters and is set to join the team immediately rather than staying in Brazil for the Club World Cup.

Meanwhile, striker Omar Marmoush underwent his medical at the club after City agreed a £67m verbal agreement with Eintracht Frankfurt to sign him.

Marmoush, 25, is the second top scorer in the Bundesliga behind Harry Kane with 15 goals. He has 20 goals in all competitions.

Mail Sport exclusively revealed City's interest in the Egypt international last month, and the club have already agreed a personal deal with the striker.
