Roberto Mancini coy on striker addition

Roberto Mancini avoids commenting on Manchester City's rumored interest in signing a new striker in the summer.

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has refused to comment on whether or not he will try to sign a striker in the summer transfer window.

City have scored just 61 goals with three games to go this season, which is considerably fewer than the 93 times they netted on their way to winning the Premier League last year.

The Manchester outfit are thought to be targeting new additions to their front line before next term, but Mancini insists that all of his focus is on the current campaign.

"We can't know which player can score 25 goals next year. If we knew that we would be magicians," Mancini told Sky Sports News.

"We have good players and were unlucky this season. Now it is important we win the FA Cup and then try to improve our team."

Carlos Tevez is City's top scorer this season with 17 goals, while Sergio Aguero and Edin Dzeko have 16 and 13 respectively.
