Man City's move for Mariga collapses over permit

Mcdonald Mariga's move from Parma to the Premier League is off.

The Kenyan international midfielder was a target of Manchester City, but work permit issues have prevented a deal from being completed.

Parma's general manager Pietro Leonardi had told the Italian media on Monday: "We hope that this case will be resolved. We should have some update from England briefly.''

Mariga joined Parma on a permanent basis in the summer of 2008, after initially moving on loan from Helsingborgs, and the 20-year-old has made nine league appearances for the club this season.

He is under contract with the Serie A outfit until June 2012.
