The head coach Roberto Mancini confirmed that Roque Santa Cruz and Shaun Wright-Phillips will be leaving the team in the coming days.

The striker Santa Cruz, who has represented the Paraguayan national team for over a decade, is expected to join "Blackburn" club, where he played from 2007 to 2009.

Meanwhile, the right back Wright-Phillips is linked with a move to London's "Fulham," "Birmingham," and London's "West Ham" teams.

The Italian specialist also stated that he does not want to part ways with the striker Emmanuel Adebayor until it is clear whether Mario Balotelli will avoid knee surgery.

Yesterday, the left back Wayne Bridge left the Arab-owned club, and he will join the "West Ham" team until the end of the season on a loan agreement.
