Lazio won't keep Bianchi Wednesday 28 May, 2008
Lazio have no intention of making Rolando Bianchi's move to the Stadio Olimpico permanent, according to reports in Italy.
The 25-year-old striker joined Lazio on loan from Manchester City in January, but has not impressed enough to earn himself a transfer.
Bianchi scored four goals in 15 appearances for the Aquilotti, yet failed to replicate the form he showed at Reggina last season.
The former Italy Under-21 international attracted the attention of some of Italy and Europe's biggest clubs in 2007 after netting 19 times for the Calabrians.
Lazio's right to buy the hitman expires on June 15, at which time, if no offer is forthcoming, he will return to Manchester.
However, Bianchi is unlikely to remain in England for long, with German side Wolfsburg believed to be interested in his signature.
Fellow Italians Andrea Barzagli and Cristian Zaccardo have already joined the Bundesliga team in recent weeks.

Sunderland are linked with Duff, Stephen Hunt & Aiden McGeady in today's Daily Mail. imo I would be very happy with these signings also we need to go after a couple of defenders & perhaps one more striker (who can get you 10-15 goals).

Hunt would be a very good signing, apart from the unfortunate Cech incident, I have always thought highly of him.

Ten Cate has left Chelsea. Funny that only a few days ago he was saying he wouldn't be sacked.
Mancini has left Inter as well, which possibly paves the way for him an a #2 to be brought in.
