Agent cool over reports of Gilardino move to Man City

Alberto Gilardino's agent is in the dark over reports linking the Fiorentina ace with a move to Manchester City. Reports emanating from Italy have suggested City boss Roberto Mancini was lining up a summer move for Gilardino, who is Fiorentina's top scorer with 15 goals in 35 games this season.

However, Gilardino's representative, Marcello Bonetto, insists he has heard nothing from City and that Fiorentina have not mentioned anything about any interest from the English side.

"I don't know anything about City and I think that right now they are concentrating on the Premier League," Bonetto told calciomercato.com.

"However, it is a question to ask to Fiorentina and not to us.

"Yesterday we met with Fiorentina sporting director Pantaleo Corvino, we have examined friendliness and future programmes in general with Fiorentina.

"But Corvino made no mention of having received an offer from the City."
