AC Milan's vice president Adriano Galliani is expected in England for talks on Thursday, and Man City have reportedly told the Italian side that the price tag for Tevez is 20m GBP.<br />

However, Mancini will not entertain any loan offers for the player that helped City to FA Cup glory last year. Mancini quipped:&nbsp;<span>"I hope we can find a good solution for us and Carlos. We want Carlos to come back and play football and the best solution for us is to sell him. We can't let him leave on loan.''</span>
