Stevan Jovetic's future at Manchester City is in doubt.
City are currently in the process of talking to Swansea City about a £25million-£30m deal for Ivory Coast striker Wilfried Bony and hope to conclude the deal in the coming days.
It is possible that City may recoup some of the money by selling Jovetic - possibly back to Italy - before the end of the January transfer window, says the Daily Mail.
As well as limiting City's Champions League squad to 21 players for this season, UEFA also decreed that the English club must not spend more than £49m net over last summer and this January.
