Roberto Mancini is expected to discuss the Carlos Tevez row with the Manchester City board today, according to Sky Sports News.
The Argentinian has been suspended for two weeks by City for a touchline issue in their Champions League defeat in Munich on Tuesday.
This suspension indicates that the club are backing Mancini's decision despite Tevez refuting claims that he refused to come on as a substitute.
The 26-year-old must now stay away from the club's training base until after the upcoming international break.
