However, the club have already lost captain Ilkay Gundogan to Barcelona and Mahrez to Saudi outfit Al Ahli.
The Athletic have now reported that Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise is one of the names on their list of potential replacements for the Algerian.
The 21-year-old impressed for the Eagles last season after bagging an impressive 11 assists in the Premier League while also scoring two goals in the process.
The report does add that a move does also depend on Bernardo Silva's future, as the Portuguese attacking midfielder and Phil Foden are able to play the role Mahrez used to down the right flank.
With Josko Gvardiol expected to be unveiled this weekend, City manager Pep Guardiola has hinted that there could be more signing in the transfer window before the deadline.
"I don't know [if City's business is finished]," the manager said ahead of the Community Shield, as per Goal
"I think it's going to move something, it's not [done] yet."
