Manchester City Have Bid For Maicon, But Inter Will Decide His Future - Agent
The representative insists the Brazilian is not pushing to leave the Nerazzurri, however, there is an offer on the table from Manchester City if Inter want to accept it…
Maicon's agent, Antonio Caliendo, has stated that it will be employers Inter who will decide the future of the enterprising full-back.
The player has fired warning shots to his club in recent weeks, claiming that he was being snubbed by the Nerazzurri and hinting at a possible exit from the club.
Real Madrid and Manchester United are said to be keen on the 27-year-old, but press reports claim that Manchester City have now joined the hunt.
“Maicon is the best right-back in the world,” Caliendo told Antenna 3.
“Besides Real Madrid, I rule out that Manchester United are looking for him, but I know that the Citizens did make an approach.
“However, the man who decides is [Inter] president [Massimo] Moratti. I would be happy if Maicon stayed at Inter to win the Champions League.”
It has been reported that Inter technical director Marco Branca recently travelled to Madrid to open talks with Real.
“Moratti says there is a 50 per cent chance of Maicon staying,” mused Caliendo.
“No one other than him can say these things. Modern football is not like it used to be, things rapidly change: everything can be sold and bought, there are books to balance and so on.
“As far as I am concerned, though, Maicon is tied to Inter for four more years.”
