Roberto Mancini linked with Barcelona as former Man City boss drops hints
Reports in Spain, however, claim Barcelona want to hire a manager who has a Barcelona back-up and that would not make Mancini a credible candidate to replace the current Barcelona boss.
Talking to media yesterday, Mancini whispered to be close to a new appointment. Asked whether he is close to park his ship in a new port, Mancini replied: “I don’t know, probably, at the moment we can say nothing, but it could be in Italy or abroad.”
​According to Spanish news outlet Sport, Mancini has dropped a couple of hints regarding a possible appointment at Barcelona. “Let’s talk in Spanish”, Mancini told TMW Radio, during a recent interview, adding that there are several things that would convince him to move to Spain to begin a chapter of his career.
