Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini doesn't want to lose Carlos Tevez AND Mario Balotelli this summer.
Mancini sees Balotelli as a readymade replacement for his want-away captain Tevez.
Mancini said: "Carlos has played Premier League for five years, Mario has only just had one season, and it's very difficult coming from another country.
"It takes time to understand about the Premier League but I am certain Mario and Edin Dzeko next season will score more goals for City.
"Mario can become like Tevez, yes. Mario is young but if he plays like he did against Blackburn playing for the team then he will be OK."
