City close in on Dabo

Last updated : 03 May 2006 By Ben Collins
The 29-year-old French international is out of contract this summer so is available on a free transfer and has been targeted by City as a potential signing.

"I haven't made a decision yet but I can certainly say that Lazio's contract offer doesn't satisfy me," he said.

"I am pretty sure I'll be leaving Serie A next season as my agent is talking to various clubs. Negotiations are in place with Manchester City," he added.

Dabo began his career at Rennes and his other clubs include Inter Milan and Monaco.
