Wolves boss Mick McCarthy would prefer to re-sign Chelsea utility player Michael Mancienne on loan than on a permanent deal.[LNB] Mancienne has spent two successful temporary spells at Molineux during the past two seasons.[LNB]There has been speculation McCarthy was willing to spend £4million to acquire the 22-year-old, but that is not the case.[LNB]McCarthy said: "I would like to see my quote where I said I would be prepared to pay £4million.[LNB]"I am pretty good at remembering what I said but I am red hot at remembering what I haven't![LNB]"We won't be buying Mancienne. They want to sell him. If they want to loan Michael out again, then that's a different matter altogether.[LNB]"I haven't discussed it with Chelsea. From my understanding, they want to sell him and he's asked for a transfer. They want to sell him rather than loan him.[LNB]"I would be interested if they want to loan him out again but that's up to them."[LNB]Mancienne initially joined Wolves as a central defender but last season operated in the holding midfield role.[LNB]
