Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini has admitted that Bosnian striker Edin Dzeko could leave the club this summer. Dzeko is with the Manchester City squad in their pre-season tour to Australia but did not play in Tuesday's match against Roma. The striker has been linked with a move to Italy, exactly at AS Roma.
Pellegrini said: "Edin didn't play the last game as it's not clear if he will continue here or not, but he is still working here with the whole squad." Dezko was bought by City from Wolfsburg in January 2011 for 27 million pounds and has signed a new four-year contract with the club last summer.
He only managed to score four Premier League goals last season as City finished second behind Chelsea. Manchester City have signed forward Raheem Sterling for 49 million pounds from Liverpool this summer and they also have three solid strikers in their squad: Sergio Aguero, Wilfried Bony and Stevan Jovetic.
Manchester City are 3.75 at Bet365 to win the Premier League next season.

Obviously Edin Dzeco was not and still isn't amongst Pellegrini's favourite players.

Anyway City have two new players up front so he will get even fewer chances if he stays. I think it will be much better for him to leave and find a club where he will be regularly in the first eleven moreover there are not too many seasons ahead of him as a player.

There are many rumors about Edin Dzeko's future. He was linked with many great teams in Europe, and that is not surprise for me. Las season he had not that much minutes to play in Manchester City, as he had before, and if you ask me he deserve more. He is great striker, he is dangerous whit his head, and also have enough...

He is great striker, he is dangerous whit his head, and also have enough technique and speed to be dangerous on one on one situations.

I expected more from him in last season, this is not a surprise for me, I think that City needs big recapitulation before next season, think that they need one more strong and fresh striker, along with Jovetic and Aguero.
