Man City in contact with Inter Milan defender Materazzi

Inter Milan's veteran defender Marco Materazzi is a target for Manchester City.

Sportsmediaset says City made an approach to Inter this week for the World Cup winner, who hasn't always seen eye-to-eye with new coach Jose Mourinho this season.

Materazzi is aware of City's interest and open to a January move to Eastlands. The stumbling block, however, will be Inter's asking price - £8 million for the 35 year-old.

1958 was a very significant year for English football, as Booby Moore made his debut for West Ham United and made the number 6 shirt his own. The rest as they say is history.

Please take him. No I wouldn't be fair to your club, he should just leave football.

Materazzi would be the worst signing ever for Manchester City. Typical.

Noooooo Materazzi is a scumbag, remember Zidane??? out of respect for the frenchman I'd stay well away from this idiot!
