Manchester City officials have reportedly started to consider the possibility of selling Edin Dzeko in the summer.
Struggles with form and fitness have seen Dzeko struggle to make an impact this season, and the arrival of Wilfried Bony in January has increased competition for places in attack.
According to the Daily Star, the club's hierarchy are believed to be frustrated with the doubts that surround his long-term future and would be willing to sell him for close to £20m when the transfer window reopens.
Inter Milan have been linked with a move for the Bosnian in the past, and that move could be of interest to the 29-year-old, who thrived under former City boss Roberto Mancini.
Dzeko is believed to be earning around £140,000 a week after signing a new four-year contract last summer.
