Martin Demichelis could be on his way out of Manchester City in January to join Argentine side Rosario Central, according to reports.
The 34-year-old central defender was snapped up by City boss Manuel Pellegrini on a two-year deal from Atletico Madrid in summer 2013, with the move coming only two months after he had moved to the Vicente Calderon from their Spanish La Liga rivals Malaga.
Demichelis endured an uncertain start to life in England, but managed to establish himself as a key man in the squad with 31 Premier League appearances last term.
But the arrival of fellow Argentinian Nicolas Otamendi from Valencia in the summer has now left Demichelis down in fourth spot in the pecking order, as skipper Vincent Kompany and Eliaquim Mangala are also ahead of him.
He has made just one start in the Premier League so far this term, while his other starts have come in the Capital One Cup and the Champions League.
And with just six months remaining on his deal, it is being reported that City could offload Demichelis in January, with Rosario coach Eduardo Coudet keen to take him back to his homeland.
Coudet played alongside Demichelis at River Plate and is a big fan of the defender, while he is also looking for a quality replacement to cover the void set to be created by Alejandro Donatti's expected departure in the new year.
