Handanovic distances himself from City rumours

Reports suggest that City coach Manuel Pellegrini is preparing a bid for the 29-year-old custodian, with both Joe Hart and Costel Pantilimon struggling for form this season.

The Slovenian international, who has 13 clean sheets this season, has been in fine form for the Serie A giants, and Pellegrini is of the opinion that he has the ability to knock Hart off his perch.

However, despite reported interest from several clubs, including Borussia Dortmund and Monaco, Handanovic believes his future remains at the club.

"My future is Inter," he said. "I am not contemplating an exit."

Handanovic moved to Inter Milan in the summer of 2012 and has a contract with the club until 2016.
