Inter Milan boss Roberto Mancini has fuelled speculation that he is interested in signing Bayern Munich's Xherdan Shaqiri and Paris Saint-Germain player Ezequiel Lavezzi this month.
The former Manchester City manager has insisted that he wants to add another winger to his ranks after signing Lukas Podolski on loan from Arsenal.
"We needed two wide players and Podolski is one of them," FourFourTwo quotes Mancini as saying. "He's 29 years old and has a wealth of experience so I hope he can make a telling contribution to the team.
"Shaqiri is another who could do a job for us but he's a Bayern Munich player. He's a young guy so it's an interesting one for the future, too. Lavezzi? Look, he's a PSG player and I think that's a difficult one for us. I don't know what's going to happen, so let's see."
Podolski scored during his first practice match in training with Inter this week.
