Manchester City are ready to outbid all comers for Udinese star Alexis Sanchez.
Udinese patron Giampaolo Pozzo is seeking £30 million-plus for the Chile international winger, counting on the confirmed interest of Barcelona, Chelsea and Inter Milan.

Mancini has made no secret of his need to find a new wing signing this summer and now has focused attention on Sanchez.
