Manchester City boss Sven-Goran Eriksson has hinted that he could bring England international Shaun Wright-Phillips back to the club.
The 26-year-old left City for Chelsea in July 2005 for £21million but has endured a frustrating time in the capital.
He has started only 29 Premier League games during his time in London and was linked with a return to City in the summer.
Since Avram Grant replaced Jose Mourinho as Chelsea boss last month, Wright-Phillips has failed to start a Premier League game and was left out of the squad altogether for Wednesday's Champions League clash against Schalke.
Eriksson is monitoring the situation, saying: "If Shaun Wright-Phillips wants to come back here, I would personally open the gate for him tomorrow. Absolutely.
"I won't pay his salary myself but I will open the gate, of course. But I have no idea if it is possible or not."
