Mehdi Benatia, AS Roma
Benatia only moved to Roma in 2013 from Udinese and played a key part in their return to the Champions League, but has now fallen out with the club over contract negotiations and City or Chelsea could swoop.

Alessio Cerci, Torino
It’s been an impressive year all round for Turin’s second most famous club and Cerci has played a big part in that success, scoring 13 goals and providing 10 assists and attracting plenty of interest along the way.

Juan Cuadrado, Fiorentina
Cuadrado has enjoyed a similar amount of success operating from the flanks and this versatile Colombian has drawn interest from Arsenal due to his 11 league goals last term.

Mattia Destro, AS Roma

Sebastian Giovinco, Juventus
It’s been an extremely tough past 12 months for this Juve forward and with an abundance of talent available in Turin in Giovinco’s position the Italy international is likely to welcome a move away.

Gabriel Paletta, Parma
Liverpool fans may remember this name as Paletta spent a year at Anfield without much success in 2006/07, but since then has built quite a reputation for himself and has attracted United as a result.

Kevin Strootman, AS Roma
Sticking with targets of the Red Devils and here is a midfielder whom their new manager Louis van Gaal knows extremely well as they work together for the Netherlands national team and the 62-year-old wants a reunion with Strootman at Old Trafford.

Arturo Vidal, Juventus
It’s perhaps a case of saving the best until last as Vidal calls himself the best box-to-box midfielder on the planet and the Chile international may have a point – which is probably why the Blues are interested.
