Real Sociedad warn that “Manchester City will not activate” their buy-back clause for Napoli target Geronimo Rulli.

The goalkeeper has emerged as the prime target to act as understudy to and eventually replace Pepe Reina.

However, so far the Partenopei have been negotiating directly with Manchester City, who still have a clause in the sale allowing his return.
