Danny Nardiello could be on his way to his beloved Sky Blues.
The striker who has been angling for a move to his home town since his days in Manchester United's reserves has rejected an offer of a contract with Barnsley and is expected to speak to City when Iain Dowie returns from a family holiday in Dubai.
Another City target Andy Todd will be allowed to leave Blackburn Rovers. His agent Peter Harrison told BBC Sport: "Andy has spoken with Mark Hughes and if the deal suits everyone concerned ,he will be on his way out."
As the 32 year old defender has a year left on his contract, Blackburn will demand a fee but it is believed that this will not be exorbitant.
