City still keen on new faces

Roberto Mancini has confirmed Manchester City are still hopeful of luring Mario Balotelli and James Milner to Eastlands, but he plans talks with Robinho before deciding the Brazilian's future. Robinho has been on loan with Santos since January and has recently made comments which suggest he would prefer to remain in Brazil. Mancini said: "Robinho will stay in Brazil until the international game and then he will come back here because I need to speak with him. "I must speak with him because it is very difficult for him to stay at Santos. "We are speaking with Inter Milan and we will try to get an agreement for Balotelli but we will not pay too high a price." Mancini suggested the attempt to get Milner was slightly nearer, although the Italian remained vague about the England star as well.
