As the rumours continue to spread through forums and newspapers regarding players such as Ibrahimovic, Boateng, Gerrard and Torres, it is hard to think that Sky Sports News can ignore these interesting deals. However they have suddenly “broke” the story surrounding Aston Villa midfielder James Milner and his potential move to Manchester City for £20 million.

If we, as City fans, were to of asked each other who they would have liked to sign during the Summer, surely they would not have mentioned Milner. However it is coming clear that Bobby Mancini is definitely interested in signing the young-ish England player, who currently has seven caps at senior level for his country.

So is this deal a goody or a bady? In my own opinion I think it’s quite good, but my father, who is a life long City fan, thinks that this will be the beginning of Mancini’s downfall. (I told him to shag off). I think this is a yet another good signing by Roberto. I like the way he attempts to bring the best out of the youth that he see’s around him ie. Ibrahim etc. With Milner only being at 24, he still has a lot of time to progress which I feel Mancini can help with. Also, being along side other England internationals such as Adam Johnson and Gareth Barry, he is sure to fit right into the squad.

So, will this deal go ahead and when will it happen? Well, if you were to believe all the trolox you hear on forums then you would of expected this to happen today (19 May). Unfortunately that isn’t the case. However, the deals may be done already and not announced. An anonymous source has said the following:

“I believe 2 are done deals that will be announced early next week – possibly Wednesday!”.

This could be in relation to Milner and the other signing Jerome Boateng from Hamburg. I will say this yet again, this summer is going to be absolutely amazing. You have my word.
