Pep Guardiola will not give up on trying to tempt Giorgio Chiellini to the Etihad. The Juventus defender is seen as an alternative to Barcelona's Samuel Umtiti, who is also a Manchester City transfer target. (Tuttosport)

I could see how Chiellini would be an attractive proposition - heck I was hoping Mancini would have signed him all those years ago now - as he's a hard man, can play a bit and can slot in at centre back or left back.
However, he's 33 now and, if we did sign him, how many years in the PL would we get out of him ??
All round, it's a great shame as he's a great defender.
