Man City consider Tiote move

Manchester City are considering a move for Newcastle United midfielder Cheick Tiote.

Manchester United and Chelsea have both been linked with £25m bids for the 25-year-old.

Blues boss Roberto Mancini has sent a scout to watch Tiote play alongside City midfielder Yaya Toure for the Ivory Coast in the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations.

Newcastle paid Dutch club FC Twente £3.5m for Tiote in August 2010.
