Premier League clubs are following Manchester City defender Pablo Mari.

The 24-year-old Spaniard has been captaining Dutch side NAC Breda while on loan there and was named in the Eredivisie's team of the month for October.

Bought by City from Gimnastic de Tarragona in 2016, Mari was sent out on loan to Girona last season before moving to Holland for this campaign.

Though an ankle injury ruled him out in recent weeks he is due to return to face Ajax this weekend.

The 6ft 3ins centre-back has been impressing scouts with his leadership qualities and composure on the ball.

Premier League and Championship sides are showing interest as they look to snap up a bargain in January with Mari understood to have a relatively low release clause.
