Dzeko could be Edin to Real

Real boss Jose Mourinho is desperate to sign the Manchester City striker, who has flopped since his £27million move from Wolfsburg in January.

But Mourinho is ready to bid £20m for the Bosnian, 25, and believes he can persuade City to sell.

Dzeko signed a 4½-year deal at Eastlands but was a target for Real last year and in January.

And while some of his City goals have been vital, there were only an unimpressive six of them.

Eastlands manager Mancini is set to embark on a spending spree, which is set to include bids for Chelsea's Didier Drogba and Brazilian ace and Real target, Neymar.

If more strikers arrive, then Dzeko would find himself completely frozen out at Eastlands.
