The agent of Inter Milan fullback Douglas Maicon is aware of interest from Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini.

City are being linked with a huge offer for the Brazil international.

Antonio Caliendo told TMW: "Mancini has always exhibited the desire to have Maicon, so for us it is not new. We must see what he will do at the end of the season.

"It is hard to imagine him leaving today because he has a contract expiring in three years."
