Premiership outfit Manchester City are within touching distance of winning their first top flight crown in 44 years as they have two matches against ambitious New Castle United and relegation threatened Queens Park Rangers.

The star saturated squad under the Italian Roberto Mancini which has as a very fringe member Liberian youngster Alex Nimely are busy with the next 180 minutes, but from a Liberian perspective the question is will they think on recalling their 20 year old Liberian striker next season?

Nimely was earlier loaned to Championship side Middlesbrough where he failed to score a goal in nine matches. He was then loaned once more this time to Coventry City also in the Championship where he managed just one goal in 17 matches which could not help the club from avoiding the drop. But, with the Citizens are thinking on bigger projects and looking to strengthen the already talent packed squad with some other top notched players round the world, it seems Nimely’s chances of reuniting with the club is unlikely.

With the likes of the rampaging Sergio Kun Aguero, the reignited Carlos Tevez, the controversial Mario Balotelli and the lethal Edin Dzeko largely responsible for keeping out of the squad the ex-Mighty Barrolle man and more high profile signings looking imminent for next season, Nimely could continue his loan spell with other clubs to see off his contract with the club or just be sold in parting company with the sky blue outfit that are regarded from a Manchester perspective as the “noisy neighbors”.
