Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gundogan has admitted that he thinks Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe is outstanding, while Borussia Dortmund's Jadon Sancho is also one to watch. City fans have jumped on the Germany international's comments, assuming that Gundogan was dropping a transfer hint to the Etihad Stadium hierarchy.

Gundogan responded to the question in intriguing fashion, which City fans loved.
"@KMbappe [Kylian Mbappe] is outstanding, but also @Sanchooo10 [Jadon Sancho]," tweeted Gundogan.
City supporters thought that the midfielder was trying to subtly convince both players to join him at the Etihad Stadium next season.
Both stars have been valued at more than £100million, but that hasn't stopped fans getting excited about the prospect of the youngsters linking up with Guardiola.

"DUB AGENT ILKAY," tweeted one City fan.
Another supporter added: "Agent GUNDOOO."
"Agent Ilkay at it," said one Twitter user, replying to Gundogan's answer.
"Agent Ilkay back at it, bring them to City lad," said one City fan.

Meanwhile, City haven't ruled themselves out of the race for Sancho.
While Manchester United is the most likely destination for the England international, it's believed that City would still like to re-sign the youngster.
The club are hoping that Sancho's close friendship with Raheem Sterling will have a role to play in Sancho's transfer decision.
Dortmund will be desperate to keep hold of Sancho this summer, although they're reportedly resigned to letting him leave for the right price.
