Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini is again being linked with Juventus.

La Stampa says Juve powerbroker Roberto Bettega is pushing Mancini's name to his board ahead of Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez and Fiorentina's Cesare Prandelli.

It's claimed Mancini's City deal includes an escape clause which the Italian can use at the end of this season.

Much will depend on whether City finish in the top four, though Mancini has insisted he is happy in England.
