Manchester City are monitoring Claudio Marchisio's situation at Juventus.
Turin sources say City boss Roberto Mancini would love to bring Marchisio to England, where he would be paired with Yaya Toure in a new-look midfield.
Marchisio is also interesting Inter Milan as new contract talks continue to rumble on.
Juve are prepared to sell if the midfielder refuses to put pen to paper, particularly with Alberto Aquilani having arrived from Liverpool. The Bianconeri rate Marchisio at €18 million, while City boss Mancini views the player at €16 million.
