Italian media claim ex-Inter and Napoli Coach Walter Mazzarri is in line to take over at Manchester City.
The tactician was spotted in the stands of the Etihad Stadium on Saturday to watch City beat Aston Villa 3-2.
This prompted Calciomercato.com to suggest he was there scouting his potential next club.
Mazzarri has kept silent since he was sacked by Inter to make way for Roberto Mancini on November 14 2014.
That was the first and only dismissal of his entire management career.
