Mario Balotelli is expected to become a Man City player in the next 48 hours, the powerful forward will sign a 5 year deal and take City's summer spending over the £100m mark for the second successive summer transfer window.
Roberto Mancini has admitted openly that if the circumstances were right he would like to sign Liverpool striker Fernando Torres, speaking on Sunday after City's 2-1 defeat to the New York Red Bulls, Mancini said,
"Torres is one of the best strikers in Europe and already knows the Premier League very well," he said. "But it depends on his situation, his price and whether he(Torres) wants to come. There are two or three strikers that we could go for. ", before going on to say he wasn't yet sure who would be in his 25 man squad when it is submitted to the FA on, or before 1st September.
He also confirmed some players would be leaving rather than gathering dust with no first team football, a situation that suits both club and player.
