from PA again:
Wales manager John Toshack believes there is "probably a good chance" his captain and star striker Craig Bellamy’s Manchester City career will be over by the end of this month.
And Bellamy, who makes a first international appearance of 2010 when Wales tackle friendly opponents Luxembourg tomorrow night, has effectively reached the same conclusion.
Bellamy is prepared to fight it out at Eastlands, but he claims City boss Roberto Mancini has not spoken to him since February.
During a candid pre-match press conference today, the 31-year-old also revealed he had turned down an offer from Steve McClaren’s Wolfsburg, would relish playing for his home-town club Cardiff City, but might even consider quitting football.
"There are doubts about Craig’s future at Manchester City," said Toshack.
"There is probably a good chance that before the end of this month he will have moved on somewhere. Talking to him, it’s pretty much looking that way.
"We will just have to wait and see what develops, but he is back and raring to, so that is obviously a positive for us."
