Manchester City aren’t planning on letting http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roberto-c31294 Mancini has insisted that he wishes to keep a hold of the defender.
The City defender went on to reveal that he was reconsidering his future, given the fact that he hardly saw any playing time with the club last season.
The defender was often under used and failed to break into the first team, despite him putting on rather decent displays every time that he stepped onto the pitch.
Kolarov has been linked with moves to the likes of Juventus and a host of German clubs. Despite that fact, it seems like City are still eager to keep a hold of the player, even though they can’t guarantee more playing time for him.
Having bought him for a massive eighteen million pounds in 2010, the team could only offer him twelve league starts last season. As a result, it became obvious that Gael Clichy was now the first choice left back at the team.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323, when talking about the defender is quoted to have said: "Kolarov? He is a great left-back and I would like to keep him"
The Italian manager then went on to admit that a number of teams were interested in acquiring the services of the full back, but with the team not willing to let go of him just yet, they were going to have to wait.
He continued: "We have very good players and there are many clubs interested in them, which means that we have done our jobs well,” he continued.
"We know his [Kolarov's] value well and we want to keep him."
It seems like Mancini is intent on keeping a hold of the defender and despite him not really thinking of him as a first team player, he feels he can definitely add something to the team.
Kolarov is more than likely going to be an impact sub for the team, or someone who can come in and fill in for the full backs when they are injured or suspended.
Nonetheless, Mancini is more than likely going to have a plan in his mind for the defender and is bound to use him rather effectively this coming season.
