After Kaka, Samuel Eto'o and Ricardo Carvalho, Luis Fabiano has become the latest player to reject Manchester City's advances by claiming he only wants to join AC Milan.
The Brazil striker, who top scored at last month's Confederations Cup, is currently in negotiations to join the Italian giants from Sevilla.
But despite the lure of the millions of pounds on offer from Manchester City's billionaire owners, the forward has his heart set on a switch to the rossonero, according to his agent Jose Fuentes.
"It's true that Manchester City have made an offer but I am 100 percent behind a move to Milan and the player is also 100 percent behind a move to Milan," he told Italian website calciomercato.it.
"Right now there is no news, everything's blocked. Officially I don't know if there's a meeting planned between Milan and Sevilla in the next few days but I believe Milan will get in touch with Sevilla again this week to make a new offer.
"I want to think positively and hence Luis Fabiano going to Milan is the only thing I want to think about at the moment."
City, who have been linked with almost every available player on the market, have had a frustrating summer in their bid to recruit the kind of top quality player needed to help their push for a top four finish in the Premier League next season.
While Kaka chose Real Madrid and Eto'o seems more interested in a switch to their cross town rivals United, City have also come up against stiff resistance in their bid for Chelsea captain John Terry.
Despite constant speculation Carlos Tevez is also yet to put pen to paper and now Luis Fabiano has become the latest player to snub the Citizens.
