  Chelsea & Tottenham Join Everton In The Race To Sign Manchester City Defender Joleon Lescott - Report

  Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are reported to be interested in acquiring the services of Manchester City defender Joleon Lescott.

  According to The Sunday People, Everton are also interested re-signing the centre-half, but the player himself remains keen on a move to London instead.
  
  The 28-year-old arrived from Goodison Park in a £24 million deal in 2009, but has failed to nail down a regular spot in the City starting line-up as Vincent Kompany and Kolo Toure are ahead of him in the pecking order.
  
  City boss Roberto Mancini has sometimes preferred youngster Dedryck Boyata as well, which has seen England international Lescott make only five starts in the Premier League this term.
  
  Lescott - currently 1418th in the Castrol Rankings, down from 1186th in the previous month - has in the past hinted that he could leave the Eastlands outfit for greener pastures, if regular football is not forthcoming.

  i think maybe both also cannot sign him base on his wages demand.

  chelsea now cut back. tottenham i think also cannot pay.

  unless loan deal which i think city is not willing coz they need back up for defence on the challenge for title.
