The hunger is still there: Manchester City have had talks to sign £250,000-a-week Chelsea player  this January

Manchester City, led by Pep Guardiola, are allegedly interested in signing Reece James from Mauricio Pochettino’s Chelsea.

Manchester City has expressed interest in Chelsea right-back Reece James.
Manchester City are in negotiations with Premier League rivals Chelsea about a possible move for Reece James, according to Football Transfers.

According to the source, Chelsea does not want to transfer James to City, who won the Premier League, UEFA Champions League, and FA Cup last season.

However, due to the injury troubles that the £250,000-a-week (Spotrac) player has had thus far in his career, the Blues could trade the right-back if they receive a large offer.

Reece James should not be sold by Chelsea.
Chelsea, in our opinion, should not sell Reece James to Manchester City.

Yes, James has had injury issues, but he is only 23 years old and is one of the greatest young right-backs in the league.
Chelsea must maintain faith in the England international.

Of course, every player has a price, but James has progressed through the Chelsea development system and has performed admirably for the main squad when called upon.

City will now be well aware of James’ injury issues.

However, the Citizens are still interested in signing the kid.

Not to mention Kyle Walker, who recently signed a new contract with City.

That demonstrates how highly City regard him.

Chelsea should pay attention.

The Blues, in our opinion, must ensure that they do not lose James.

James has made 99 Premier League outings in his career.

In those games, the right-back has seven goals, 14 assists, and 20 clean sheets.
