Manchester City will reject any loan move for Stevan Jovetic, according to a report.
The Montenegrin has struggled to adapt to life in the Premier League, and it is believed that a host of teams in Serie A want to take the forward on a short-term deal in January.
However, City want their £25m summer signing to stay at the Etihad Stadium to try and acclimatise to English football, according to The Mirror.
Jovetic has played just three times this season.
