“I do feel it is closed now at City for me unless Roberto Mancini got the job and wanted to bring me back in! Wherever I go next, or stay at Fiorentina, I want to be first choice. It’s nothing to do with money. If it was for money, I’d have signed at City. I’ve been playing since I was 17 and until two years ago, I’ve always been first choice so not to be first choice is difficult to take. It was emotional because I was at City for a long time but some day I’ll be back there in some capacity, maybe not coaching, I’d like to scout players. I do love City. City fans have always been great to me.
