Manchester City face an auction with Zenit St Petersburg for Napoli star Ezequiel Lavezzi.

City powerbrokers, including manager Roberto Mancini, admit the Argentine is on their shopping list.

Tvoi Den says City will face competition from Zenit, which will make an opening offer of €18 million for Lavezzi in the coming weeks.

Napoli insiders insist they won't consider parting with Lavezzi for less than €32 million.
