Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini admits he does not know where Carlos Tevez will be at the end of the transfer window, but remains confident of securing a move for the troubled striker.

AC Milan appeared to be leading the chase for the Argentina international's signature, but city rivals Inter Milan have now stepped up their pursuit of Tevez, and are reportedly willing to offer cash for the player, while AC still favour a loan deal. Tevez is said to prefer a move to AC, but Mancini admits the club must accept the best offer.

"Maybe it could be Inter that is interesting because the revenue is better and Milan the same but I don't know the latest news," Mancini said.

Tevez has not played since September, having fallen out with City officials, and Mancini is eager to end speculation and secure a move for the striker.

"Maybe we can find a good solution in January," he said. "It is important for Carlos because it is three months that he has not played."

Mancini confirmed there had been no interest for Wayne Bridge and Nedum Onuoha, with the City boss looking to offload both players before the transfer window closes on January 31.
