Inter Milan coach Roberto Mancini not interested in Aaron Lennon

Inter Milan boss Roberto Mancini has revealed that Tottenham Hotspur attacker Aaron Lennon is not on his radar ahead of the January transfer window.

Speculation is rife that Mancini is interested in luring the out-of-favour winger to the San Siro next month, with Spurs keen for the Italians to send Fredy Guarin the other way.

Although the former Manchester City boss played down the Lennon reports, he did admit that Atletico Madrid striker Alessio Cerci is a possibility.

"Lennon? We have not talked about him. This is not part of our plans, but there will probably be other players if we can get them," he told reporters.

"Cerci? He's a possibility, but we'll have to wait. He's an Atletico Madrid player. We certainly lack players of a top level in that role."

Cerci is yet to start a La Liga outing for the Spanish champions following his summer move from Torino, while 27-year-old Lennon has started just three Premier League games this season.

The England international is contracted to White Hart Lane until 2016.
