Report: Manchester City to reject Valencia bid for Edin Dzeko

Manchester City will reportedly turn down a £15m offer from Spanish side Valencia for Edin Dzeko in the January transfer window.

The Bosnian striker has started just six Premier League games for City this season, but with Sergio Aguero sidelined for the foreseeable future, manager Manuel Pellegrini has backed Dzeko to fill the void left by the Argentine forward.

However, The Metro reports that Valencia will test City's resolve with a bid of £15m, but with Stevan Jovetic joining Aguero in the treatment room, Pellegrini will turn down the bid from the Spanish outfit.

Borrusia Dortmund and Inter Milan are also keeping tabs on the 27-year-old.
