Man City youngster Scapuzzi hoping to impress

Manchester City striker Luca Scapuzzi says he is determined to do well at the club despite the fact he is way down the pecking order.

The 20-year old attacking midfielder was recently sent out on loan to League One club Oldham Athletic, where he was impressive, and he could again leave Eastlands in order to further his development.

Scapuzzi admits he is unsure what City manager Roberto Mancini wants him to do for the remainder of the season but does know that he wants to excel at Etihad Stadium.

"I don't know if I'll go out on loan again and stay away until the end of the season, it depends on what the coach decides," Scapuzzi told tuttomercatoweb.

"At the moment I am working here and that is important for my growth.

"My goal is to stand out at Manchester City. I know that will not be easy and it will take time, but City have tied me to a long-term contract and I want to stand out here."
