Man City wont make move for De Rossi

Man City won't make move for De Rossi

19 November 2011 - 07:11

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini would love to make a move for Roma midfielder Daniele De Rossi, but ruled out making a transfer switch for the player in January.

  • Dutch star undergoing his medical at Chelsea
  • Chelsea's deal to sign RB Leipzig midfielder falls through

  • De Rossi's contract at Roma expires next summer, and Mancini's comments suggest that the Italian international will put pen to paper on a new deal in Rome.



    "It's difficult to lure a Roman footballer and a Roma fan away from Roma. I wouldn't be surprised if he were to renew his contract," said Mancini.



    City were linked with an 18m GBP move for the midfielder during the summer, but a bid for the 28 year old did not materialize.
