Wonder if Mancini would look to secure the attacking midfielder Mario Gotze from Borussia Dortmund now that Hazard has gone to Chelsea.

The German international, only 19, would cost a fortune but would be fantastic if we were able to entice him from the German champions.
 
what reason does he have to leave?

Also, wiki lol
He will be joining Barclays Premier League Club Aston Villa on the 1st July 2012 for a club record £47.97 million fee.

Last I heard of him he was considering taking a break from football. Is he back from his injury?

Nope it is an Hip Injury so it will take a long time for him to be right.
 
No club in the world who wouldn't want him in their side, but he's untouchable at the moment, maybe in a year or 2.
 
lol, why would he leave the strongest club in germany? (which is going to be even better next year)
 
Didn't he just sign a new deal too. Also, I don't think he's that willing to move abroad just yet especially because Dortmund is performing so well and could be a force even in champions league. We should go for other targets.
 
Well Dortmund were interested in Dzeko if this story had any legitimacy...

<a class="postlink" href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2121267/Edin-Dzeko-wanted-Borussia-Dortmund-Manchester-City-target-Mario-Gotze.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/footba ... Gotze.html</a>

But I don't see Dortmund going for Dzeko if they manage to keep Lewandowski (they allegedly turned down a £15million offer from the scum for him). I don't rate the chances of signing Gotze very highly at all, it'd probably require him wanting to come here and he seems very happy at the club.
 
He wants to play for Dortmund for a couple of years to come and I can't blame him<br /><br />-- 30 May 2012, 10:36 --<br /><br />He wants to play for Dortmund for a couple of years to come and I can't blame him
 
I understand why people are saying "why would he leave" but why would Kagawa not sign a new contract then?

Still think playing for a top 4 side in England would at least make him consider it

Gotze came from the youth team, he joined them at eight years old, unlike the Japanese Kagawa.
He's recently signed a new deal with them which I'm sure contains a nice wedge of weekly green, unlike the Japanese Kagawa.
His father is currently a professor at the Dortmund university, his family will no doubt have roots in Dortmund, unlike the Japanese Kagawa.
He's won the league two years on the bounce (time to attempt a third) in his home country playing for a club he'll no doubt have feelings for, unlike the Japanese Kagawa.
Need I go on. He's German, playing in Germany, winning medals in Germany, playing for a German club he's been with since he was eight, earning international caps for Germany.

His efforts to establish himself with the Nationalmannschaft will also benefit from staying in Germany for a few years. If you look at their national side, very few of them play outside of Germany (which is only going to get worse due to the new TV deal that has just been signed).

The reason why not much of the German internationals play out of the country is because we have an attractive league - and the players are still very young. The average age of the players in the Euro 2012 squad is 24,4 years - they have the youngest average (and there is still a Klose with soon 34 and a second or third goalkeeper Wiese with 32)

A lot still have talent status... - somewhen when they grow older they will want to make their experiences in foreign countries. But now it is just too early for a lot of them.

I fully understand that Götze - who still has a lot to develop and until now lives still in a room at home - does not change to the PL with 19. His club plays CL.

Kagawa is a grown player - no talent anymore - who is 23 and does not have no special bondages with Germany. He does not play in a youth team since 2006 even if this was Japanese League.
