Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini is reportedly interested in signing Napoli star Marek Hamsik as a replacement for Carlos Tevez.
With Brazilian outfit Corinthians expected to make an offer for the Argentinian when the winter window opens, Mancini is preparing to bolster his attacking options with the £20m-rated attacker, according to the Daily Star.
The Citizens boss is also understood to be interested in signing Napoli forwards Ezequiel Lavezzi and Edinson Cavani, but is said to be 'raving' about the 24-year-old Hamsik following his performance in their 1-1 draw a fortnight ago.
The Slovakia international has also been linked with Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United in the past.
