Influential agent Raiola (it was some time he had no contacts, yesterday he was @ AC headquarters in Via Turati, today @ Milanello training centre) helped broker the deal which took City outcast Robinho to Milan last year (plus Ibra from Barcelona) and Raiola held preliminary discussions with City executives regarding Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the past, although no move materialised.
Galliani, according to sources in Italy, is aware of Raiola's influence and ability to push through deals, combined with his good relationship with City and he's eager to use this to his advantage.
Tevez is desperate to leave City and allegedly went on strike during their Champions League clash with Bayern Munich last month which led to a two-week (now four) suspension from the club (plus a £1.5 million fine to pay).
Wantaway striker Tevez has returned to City following his ban but he is training alone, having been told he won't play for the club again.
And although Mancini has since softened his hardline stance regarding the 27-year-old, it is assumed Tevez won't play for him again.
Also Juventus and Inter Milan have been interested in him. AC Milan are eager to reinvigorate their squad in January and Tevez is a prime target - although Galliani wants to broker a loan deal with the option of a permanent move next summer.
I didn't like that banner "Tevez out" from some City fans, we should be grateful to him. I think the club has some responsibility... they should be able to manage mad players, as they do @ AC Milan with Cassano, Ibra, Balotelli next year :) etc.
