New manager Roberto Mancini has said he will try and sign Maicon from his old club Internazionale if Manchester City finish in the top four of the Premier League this season.
The new Eastlands boss also suggested he would like to work again with Barcelona targetman Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Mancini is convinced the game’s top stars will want to join his revolution if City can book a place in Europe’s elite club competition and feels Maicon and Ibrahimovic would improve his squad.
“If City finish in the top four we will look for players of the highest level,” Mancini told francorossi.com.
“I would like Maicon. With Ibra there’s always been a rapport of great loyalty.
“He’s world class. Which manager in the world wouldn’t like Ibrahimovic?”
