Rose who has spent his last seasons away from Spurs on loan has finally cemented his place in the starting lineup under boss Mauricio Pochettino. He has started 24 league games this season for the London side.
While, Gael Clichy who is currently playing the left-back role at City has not been impressive this season. Boss Manuel Pellegrini is planning to sign Rose to give Clichy a tough competition for that full-back role.
Rose has scored two goals and assisted four in his 25 Premier League appearances.
His impressive performances has also given him a call from England boss Roy Hodgson. The Englishman who is playing his sixth season at Spurs has finally established a place. An offer from the Citizens would definitely make his mind for a move as the blue side of Manchester would double his current wage.
Spurs manager Pochettino is keen to keep the player but if City continue their interest then they will splash big cash to secure his deal.
