Man City outcast Santa Cruz would consider return to Germany

Manchester City striker Roque Santa Cruz is refusing to rule out a return to the Bundesliga. The 29-year-old striker was brought to Europe by Bayern Munich as a 17-year-old prodigy and stayed with the club for eight years.

Santa Cruz has been a peripheral figure at Eastlands this season and is expected to leave the club in January if a suitable offer is tabled.

"Definitely, I am considering my future and I understand people in Germany may believe I am currently injured. This is delusion," Santa Cruz told spox.com.

"I have been fully fit since the World Cup tournament. I have no troubles, I am feeling great, training every day and physically I am stronger than I ever was before.

"The Bundesliga is a great competition with big stadiums and good clubs.

"This is why I think this league is a good option. I always felt good at being in Germany."
