Former Italy winger Attilio Lombardo has joined ex-Sampdoria teammate Roberto Mancini's backroom staff at Manchester City, the Premier League club said on Saturday.
 
"He was a top-class player and will bring lots of experience and a winning mentality to the group," manager Mancini told the City website www.mcfc.co.uk.
 
Lombardo, 44, played for Crystal Palace in the 1990s. Ever since he retired as a player, he had been working with young players at Sampdoria and as coach of Swiss side FC Chiasso. He will scout the opposition for City.
 
"I know he is excited at being at Manchester City and I know that he loves the English game from his time in London," said Mancini.
 
Mancini has already appointed another former Sampdoria teammate, retired England midfielder David Platt, as his first team coach at the Abu Dhabi-owned club.
