AC Milan hunting Elano

Milan are interested in signing Man City midfielder Elano. According to reports, Manchester City's boss Mark Hughes is ready to listen to offers from other clubs for the Brazilian.

Elano is valued by City at around 4 million GBP, but has been told by City staff that he may find his opportunities limited in the first-team next year.

Shaun Wright Phillips and Stephen Ireland are currently City's first choice attacking midfielders, and Elano is well aware that he is going to have a battle on his hands to dislodge them from the first-team.
