Marca have claimed that Manuel Pellegrini is desperate to sign the Portugal international after the injury to Matija Nastasic.
The youngster is set to miss at least the next six weeks, and the Premier League side are keen to bolster their defence with the Blancos man.
City have named the 30-year-old as their prime target for this transfer window, however the Santiago Bernabeu team are not willing to sell.
Following Raul Albiol’s move to Napoli, Madrid have only three senior central defenders on their books, and do not want to lose one this late in the window.
Carlo Ancelotti’s men may consider offers over €30m though, the paper insists.
