The agent of Douglas Maicon has revealed the interest of Manchester City in the Inter Milan fullback. Along with Real Madrid, Maicon's agent, Antonio Caliendo, claims Chelsea and Premier League rivals City are also firmly in the hunt.

"The situation is very clear - in life, everything is bought and sold, except love," he told calciomercato.it. "His future is being decided in the coming days.

"Have Chelsea revived their interest? As I've always said, there isn't only Real Madrid interested in Maicon.

"I don't neglect Manchester City either. Roberto Mancini has coached him and Maicon is the first name on the pad of the former Inter coach."
