A return to Italy is likely for wantaway Manchester City striker Stevan Jovetic.

The Manchester Evening News says top Italian clubs want to take him back to Serie A, with Juventus expected to meet his agent this week to discuss a possible move, with AC Milan also keen.

A move to the Champions League finalists would clearly appeal to Jovetic, and he would not take such a big hit in pay.

Juve would also offer Jovetic the chance to step into the boots of Carlos Tevez, who is leaving to join Boca Juniors and play in his favoured number ten role.
