Mancini quit Inter at the beginning of the season, but not before trying to sign his former City star.
"I tried to bring him to Inter but I do not know why he did not come. The first year was tied to the contract, there was some difficulty, but last year there was a real chance to take him to Italy," said Mancini.

"He did not arrive and I do not know why. He is a champion like (Andrea) Pirlo. At his age despite being 34, he is physically monstrous, serious and can play at high levels, and now it seems they want to renew him - he's a great champion."
