Man City star rules out Italy return

The 25-year-old has recently been linked with the likes of AC Milan, Juventus, Inter Milan and Fiorentina.

“Newspapers have to do their job and I can’t change anything. Not even one club from Italy has called me but even if they would I wouldn’t answer,” he told Mondo.

“I have been playing for City for just one year and this season I only adapted to English football.

“I’m sure that next season I will be able to perform even better. I’m quite happy with how things are going for me in the UK.

“This season we reached our goals. We won the FA Cup and got ourselves a ticket for the Champions League.

“I’m sorry that I had many problems with injuries, especially in the first half of the season but I still managed to get 40 games. I’m really happy.”
