Mancini not interested in return to Italy

Roberto Mancini is not tempted by a return to Italy and insists his future is at Manchester City.

The former Italy international has only been in charge at City since December 2009, but reports in his homeland have linked Mancini with a return to Serie A this summer.

“I miss Italy as a country but football in England is beautiful,” said Mancini.

The former Inter Milan boss is today in Naples where he testified this morning for 15 minutes in the criminal trial into the Italian match-fixing scandal.

Mancini was called in as a witness in the trial that includes former Juventus executive Luciano Moggi and former referee selector Paolo Bergamo as defendants.
