The Blues forward, who turns 31 next month, insists he would not think of going anywhere else but his home-town club if ambitious City reluctantly  decide to let him go. Previous boss Mark Hughes brought the striker to Eastlands from West Ham for £12m in January, 2009. He has faced constant speculation about his future since Hughes was sacked and replaced by Mancini in December. Bellamy?s wholehearted performances have won him many fans at Eastlands, while Mancini has always indicated that he sees the Welshman as a big part of his plans. He scored 10 Premier League goals last season as City just missed out on a place in the Champions League. But during a visit to Sierra Leone ? where his charity, the Craig Bellamy Foundation, operates ? Bellamy indicated that he may still have to consider a future away from the Eastlands outfit. He said: ?There?s more than one or two people run that club, so if I get the vote of confidence off five or six people, then I?ll stay. ?But if it?s a couple in other people?s favour, then it might be different ? because I do want to be wanted, like every player does. ?I?ve never once ? and I never would once ? sit back and pick up my money. ?I just couldn?t do that to myself. It would be lying about who I am as a person, so I?ll probably look for that next challenge.
