Roberto Mancini regrets Daniel Sturridge sale

Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini admits that the club should never have sold Daniel Sturridge to Chelsea.

Manchester City should never have sold Daniel Sturridge to Chelsea, according to manager Roberto Mancini.

The 22-year-old striker moved to Stamford Bridge before the Italian took charge of the club in 2009.

"I know Sturridge well, I have watched him many times," said Mancini. "Given the chance I think I would have liked to have kept him, but now he is at Chelsea we can do nothing. I know for sure he was one of the best young players that was here."

Sturridge has scored nine goals in 20 Premier League appearances for Chelsea this season.
