LoveCity said:Real to offer £8.7m + Fernando Gago for Adebayor according to Sport. But Gago is not really the kind of player we need, another holding midfielder.
Mancini actually said that is what he is looking for, "because Vieira retired". He's also a big fan of Gago as he tried to buy him a couple times.
I'm a huge fan of this rumour, gets ride of Manu and brings us a solid CM who won't be coming in on gargantuan wages.
