Manchester City open to selling Matija Nastasic?

Manchester City have reportedly decided to listen to offers for centre-back Matija Nastasic as they prepare to make room for Eliaquim Mangala.

Nastasic impressed in his first season at the Etihad Stadium, but a string of injuries made it difficult for the Serbian to replicate the same form last campaign.

Manuel Pellegrini has made signing a defender a top priority this summer, and reports have suggested that Mangala is edging closer to a move to the Premier League champions from Porto.

According to the Daily Mail, City are willing to part with Nastasic if a club offers the right price in the current window.

Joleon Lescott left the club last month on a free transfer after finding opportunities difficult behind first-choice pair Vincent Kompany and Martin Demichelis.
