Roberto Mancini insists that Manchester City will not replace Carlos Tevez with either of Napoli duo Edinson Cavani and Ezequiel Lavezzi.
Rebel striker Carlos Tevez looks to be closing on a move to AC Milan after his very public falling out with the club.
Such a move would leave Mancini with just Mario Balotelli, Edin Dzeko and Sergio Aguero up front, with Emmanuel Adebayor on loan at Spurs and Roque Santa Cruz at Real Betis, but the City boss insists he has more then enough options.

He said: 'Another striker? No. I have three strikers. That's enough.
'We also have three or four players who can play like a second striker.
'I think Cavani and Lavezzi are strong players. But they play for Napoli at this moment.
'I don't know what's going to happen in the future.'
Uruguay striker Cavani, 24, netted twice as Napoli edged City towards an early Champions League exit last week.

Napoli officials have told City informally that they are could be willing to sell if the right offer came in, according to the Manchester Evening News.
Meanwhile, Argentina striker Lavezzi, 26, has been urged to move to Eastlands by his international team-mate and City star Aguero.
