Man City in Pizarro talks

Manchester City are embroiled in negotiations to sign Roma’s attacking midfielder David Pizarro on loan.

Pizarro, who is also a target for Juventus, is on his way to Eastlands to trash out a deal with Roberto Mancini’s side.

Serie A side Roma are happy to do deal for the Chilean that includes a £1 million option to make the move permamant at the end of the season.

Roma general director Franco Baldini said: “For our transfer market, I would say that there will be no surprises, we’re just trying to close with City for Pizarro.

“We are looking at a loan, we hope to reach an agreement by tonight.”

Mancini, who coached Pizarro at Inter Milan, sees the 32-year-old’s ability to play in central midfield or just behind the strikers as an ideal way of boosting City’s title bid.
