City are desperate to sell him obviously.
I guess it could potentially stop another situation like this happening again, which could save us money down the track.
They can still sell him in 6 months, I see it still as an investment for other areas of the business.

It would probably cost the club over £10 mill to keep him, and would not be a good thing for anyone at City. His value would drop, he'd get older, he'd be less "in demand". And noone would want him kicking around, being treated like a naughty boy and distracting everyone.
Yet another piece of miscommunication by the dippers.pardoe said:I've heard a rumour that this whole Carroll/Tevez thing might've been blown out of all proportion, and that the "offer" was simply a throwaway comment by a Liverpool director to Brian Marwood following talk by Dalglish after the second leg of the League Cup tie to the effect of "if they have any other players they don't want they know where to send them".
Perhaps we're boxing clever here - using Liverpool to force Milan's hand, seeing as PSG and Inter have publically ended their interest?
Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini insists estranged striker Carlos Tevez does not have a problem with him.
The player's advisor Kia Joorabchian on Friday claimed Tevez's relationship with his manager had never been good and there had been "feuds" throughout their time together.
This has come as a surprise to Mancini, who has always got the impression he had a good working relationship with a player he made his skipper at the start of last season.
"Carlos doesn't have any problem with me," said the City boss.
Tevez now looks increasingly likely to remain at City after Tuesday's transfer window has closed.
It has been claimed Tevez wants to join AC Milan, which is the reason why approaches from Inter Milan and Paris St Germainwere unsuccessful.
Presently though, the 27-year-old remains in Argentina, as he has been for over two months.
There have been suggestions he will return if his future is not sorted this week, leaving Mancini with a tricky problem trying to reintegrate a player in his squad who has taken such an extreme stance.
"Everyone should always answer for his behaviour," added Mancini.
"If a player is at one club and wants to go to another, it is an option for the player. Maybe for the club it is a big problem."
