3) Micah Richards
Former England international Richards will be a free agent in June and there appears to be little or no chance of his parent club retaining his services when his current loan deal at Fiorentina comes to an end.
The 26-year-old has been hampered by muscle injuries over the last two seasons but there is a mutual respect between he and Mancini, under whom he produced by far his best and most consistent displays in a blue shirt.
