City might have one of the busier final days of the transfer window.

Sinclair and Nastasic look to be in.

Maicon seems to probable at around £3 million.

If City lose De Jong to Inter, hopefully it won't be at the low price of £3.5 million like is being reported. It would be frustrating to lose a guy at a position of need for that price especially if Yaya leaves again for the African Cup of Nations.

You gotta love the final days of the transfer window because you get to hear twitter/tabloid rumors linking City to players like Pique, Iniesta, and Pedro.

Maicon has lost a lot from his game the past two seasons but, if Mancini plans to have him camped out in the attacking third with three in the back, he can help break down bunkered sides.

I think Milan is the more likely suitor for De Jong.
I like De Jong more than Barry (and maybe Rodwell) for City's needs but he's not English so I suppose that's why he's the odd one out.

Matija Nastasic' seems like a great prospect but so did Savic and he's played around 20 matches in top flight football so far so time will tell. Fiorentina getting Savic in exchange may pay it's biggest dividends in having a fellow countryman to help keep Jovetic happy in Firenze.
