Man City plan £30m move for Zarate

Manchester City are interested in signing Mauro Zarate, according to the Argentinean’s agent.

City are considering making a £30million bid for the 21-year-old, who is currently on loan at Lazio.

It is believed Lazio have the option to make their loan deal permanent.

His agent, Jose Alberti, told Italian website Novantesimo: “The Arabs who own the club are interested in him.

“We spoke last month and they told me they were ready to offer £30 million to buy him.

“Their aim is to get to the same level as Real Madrid during the ‘galactico’ era.

“But the player is Lazio’s to lose.”
