Esteban Matias Cambiasso

The Daily Mail reports that Manchester City are lining up a €17 million bid for Esteban Cambiasso, the Inter Milan midfielder.

Although perhaps not a household name in England, the Argentine international is widely regarded as one of the best holding players in Serie A.

The 28-year-old has become a mainstay for the Nerazzurri since joining from Real Madrid in 2004, and it seems that City manager Mark Hughes has taken a shining to him.

Sparky has made no secret of his intention to toughen up the spine of his Sky Blues squad, and an energetic yet intelligent player like Cambiasso certainly fits the job description.

It remains to be seen how genuine City's supposed interest is, and whether it will affect their long-established desire to sign Lassana Diarra from Portsmouth.
