City have now stepped up their bid for Dzeko, so according to Tuttosport newspaper, Juve director general Beppe Marotta is flying out to Germany today in a last-ditch attempt to stop the move.

The Turin-based newspaper claims Dzeko would prefer to join Juventus and considers them a more prestigious club.

City are able to offer €30m in cash, whereas Juve would cover the fee with the inclusion of Momo Sissoko and Amauri.

If the Bianconeri were to secure a deal, Dzeko would only be able to move in June due to the limit on non-EU players, so would remain at Wolfsburg for the next six months.
