Genoa are ready to cancel the loan of Manchester City youngster Olivier Ntcham.
The midfielder joined the Italian club on a two-year loan back in August 2015 after moving to the Etihad from Le Havre in 2012.
Since the move, the France youth international has made 20 appearances for Genoa and scored one goal.
But now, according to Calciomercato, Ntcham is about to be sent back to Manchester City.
The 20-year-old has reportedly fallen out of favour with staff at Genoa and they no longer need him as part of their squad.
As a result, the Italian club will cancel the Frenchman's loan in January so City can send him out elsewhere.
