According to reports Manchester City are ready to sell defender Nedum Onuoha.

The Sun claims City's £6m-rated defender Nedum Onuoha has been told he can leave Eastlands, with Blackburn Rovers ready to give him a home.

Rovers boss Steve Kean, who signed former Aberdeen defender Myles Anderson yesterday, is a big fan of Onuoha's and has already opened talks with City chief Mancini.

Sunderland also remain interested in Onuoha, having had the player on-loan last season.
