Edin Dzeko set to stay at Manchester City

Edin Dzeko will remain at Manchester City for the coming season, according to his agent Irfan Redzepagic.

Dzeko, who scored just six goals for City last season, has been linked with a move away from the Etihad, with Juventus and Atletico Madrid said to be interested.

But Redzepagic has insisted that there has been no approach for Dzeko, who joined City for £27 Million in 2011, and he fully expects him to remain at the club for the remainder of his three year contract.

“When you read the media reports, it looks like all clubs want Dzeko. I’ve also heard some of Bosnian League teams are after him,” Redzepagic quipped to Bosnian newspaper Nezavisne,

“Every day he is linked to some other club: first it was Atletico Madrid, then Juventus, now Roma, Chelsea…these are all just rumours that go on during every transfer window. I am bored of repeating that those stories are not true.

“He hasn’t rejected any offers because there were no offers! And that is the whole truth. Edin has a contract with Man City until 2018 and is happy at the club.

“Many things influenced his performances last season, like the two injuries he had. But he has no reason to be unhappy at the club he won four trophies with. So the chances of him leaving are none.”
