Manchester City are ready offer a coaching post to AS Roma captain Daniele de Rossi.

Tuttosport says De Rossi could hang up his boots in the summer after a campaign plagued by injury.

De Rossi is out-of-contract at the Stadio Olimpico at the end of the season and is understood to be contemplating hanging up his boots.

Former teammate Pep Guardiola is interested in bringing the 35-year-old to England.

A veteran of over 600 club appearances and 117 international outings, the one club man has swathes of experience for City's youngsters to draw from.
