Manchester City Offer Bianchi For Mancini

Mancini's future at Roma has been questioned this season as the player has being followed by various important European clubs.

However, the most insistent team chasing him is the Manchester City side of Sven Goran Eriksson. Now, the Swede is ready to offer Bianchi and money in exchange for Mancini.

The Brazilian midfielder is currently valued at 20m Euros and his current deal with the Giallorossi expires in June 2009.

Contract extension negotiations are not going very smoothly, and in order not to lose the player on a free transfer next year, the Giallorossi will have to start to take into consideration the possibility of selling Mancini either in this transfer window or this summer.

Mancini’s performances on the field this year have also been of a lower level than last season, with many attributing this to the lengthy contract battles which may server to distract the Brazilian.
