SHAY GIVEN could spend the rest of the season at Manchester City after rejecting loan deals – and insisting he wants a PERMANENT switch out of Eastlands.
The Lifford goalie is prepared to look at all offers, we understand, including a switch to Italian giants Roma.
But he has told Roberto Mancini and the City hierarchy he wants a permanent transfer – not just a solution to the end of the season.
The stance could mean Given sitting on the bench at City until the end of the season if a decent offer is not made by another big club.
Our source says Given is determined to push for a permanent switch but he is ‘fed-up’ sitting on the bench.
